"The US-brokered proposal requires Kyiv to make territorial concessions to Russia and to stay out of NATO. The United States has revealed all 28 points of its proposal to end the Russia-Ukraine war to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The plan, which has been heavily criticised as far too favourable to Russia by many observers, is in its draft stage and has yet to be made public."
"2. A comprehensive, non-aggression agreement will be concluded between Russia, Ukraine and Europe. All ambiguities of the last 30 years will be considered settled. 3. It is expected that Russia will not invade neighbouring countries and NATO will not expand further. 4. A dialogue will be held between Russia and NATO, mediated by the US, to resolve all security issues and create conditions for de-escalation to ensure global security and increase opportunities for cooperation and future economic development. 5. Ukraine will receive reliable security guarantees."
"6. The size of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be limited to 600,000 personnel. 7. Ukraine agrees to enshrine in its constitution that it will not join NATO, and NATO agrees to include in its statutes a provision that Ukraine will not be admitted in the future. 8. NATO agrees not to station troops in Ukraine. 9. European fighter jets will be stationed in Poland."
The US proposed 28 points require Ukraine to confirm its sovereignty while accepting territorial concessions and a constitutional ban on NATO membership. A comprehensive non-aggression agreement among Russia, Ukraine and Europe is to settle ambiguities from the past 30 years, with Russia expected not to invade neighbors and NATO agreeing not to expand or station troops in Ukraine. Military limits include a cap of 600,000 personnel and European fighter jets stationed in Poland. The US would provide security guarantees with financial compensation and caveats that the guarantee can be revoked for offensive Ukrainian actions.
