US Envoy Develops Peace Plan for Ukraine
"Special Envoy Witkoff has been quietly working on this plan for a month, receiving input from both the Ukrainians and the Russians on what terms are acceptable to them to end the war," the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, stated. "Both sides will have to make concessions, not just Ukraine."
The official noted that U.S. President Donald Trump has been briefed on the proposal and has expressed his support for it.
White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt emphasized that Trump "has been clear" that he wants to see the war brought to an end, while also expressing that he "has grown frustrated with both sides for their refusal to commit to a peace agreement."
"Nevertheless, the President and his team never give up, and the United States has been working on a detailed and acceptable plan for both sides to stop the killing and create a durable, lasting peace," Leavitt added.
Earlier on Thursday, Ukraine confirmed it had formally received the "draft plan."
Ukraine’s Presidential Office indicated that Volodymyr Zelenskyy outlined the fundamental principles that are crucial for Kyiv and agreed to collaborate on the points of the plan following a meeting conducted earlier in the day.
