"Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has revealed a new 20-point plan to end the war in Ukraine. The 20-point plan is a revision of a 28-point proposal made by Washington in November, which leaders in Europe and Ukraine considered too conciliatory to Russia's demands. Kyiv has managed to secure some concessions in the new plan, which comes after intense consultations in recent weeks between negotiators from the US, Europe and Ukraine."
"Key points that Ukraine had objected to in the White House's original plan have been addressed, namely Kyiv having to immediately withdraw from the eastern Donetsk region and renounce its NATO membership bid. Also, under the new plan, the land currently occupied by Moscow will not be recognized as Russian. While Zelenskyy said Ukraine's and Russia's positions had been brought closer on most points, consensus on two key points remains elusive: control of territory in eastern Ukraine and control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, the largest in Europe."
Kyiv presented a revised 20-point plan to end the war, shortening a previous 28-point Washington proposal considered too conciliatory to Russia. Negotiations among US, European and Ukrainian officials yielded concessions on key Ukrainian objections, including removing requirements for immediate withdrawal from eastern Donetsk and renouncing NATO membership. The revised plan specifies that land currently occupied by Moscow will not be recognized as Russian. Positions between Ukraine and Russia converged on most items, but agreement remains lacking on territorial control in eastern Ukraine and on governance and control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
