US peace plan proposal/Zelensky expected to speak with Trump

Volodymyr Zelensky will speak with Donald Trump after the US presented Ukraine with a draft peace plan to end its war with Russia.

The plan was reportedly drawn up by US special envoy Steve Witkoff and his Russian counterpart Kirill Dmitriev, without Ukraine's involvement.

In a statement, Zelensky's office said the US believes the draft plan could help revive diplomacy and added that Ukraine had agreed to work on the plan's provisions in a way that would bring about a just end to the war.

Kiev supported all essential proposals capable of bringing peace, the statement said.

The Ukrainians did not provide any details on what the proposal entails, although according to sources cited by Axios, the Financial Times and Reuters, it includes plans for Kiev to give up the areas of Donbas in eastern Ukraine it still controls, significantly reduce the size of its army and give up many of its weapons.

The White House said Trump was frustrated with both Russia and Ukraine for their refusal to commit to a peace deal and that his team had been working on a detailed and acceptable peace plan.

However, Moscow downplayed the significance of the plan, which reportedly includes 28 points.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that while there had been contacts with the US, there was no consultative process.

The statement from Zelensky's office came after a meeting in Kyiv on Thursday between the Ukrainian president and senior US military figures, including US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, the Army Chief of Staff, General Randy George, and the top US military commander in Europe, General Chris Donahue.

Neither Ukraine nor its European partners were involved in drafting the new plan, and on Thursday European foreign ministers warned against presenting proposals without consulting Kiev or Brussels.

" For any plan to work, it needs the support of Ukrainians and Europeans ," said EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas.

Peskov, the Kremlin spokesman, warned that any peace agreement would have to address the root causes of the conflict.
