Zelenskyy on plan for Ukraine: All partners must have shared understanding of risks

According to Zelenskyy, the strength and unity of Ukraine’s partners in the world will determine not only how quickly the war ends but also how long the region remains free from new conflicts.

"The stronger the world’s united positions on these points, the longer-lasting the peace will be. And this depends not only on Ukraine but also on the united stance of Europe and the position of the United States," Zelenskyy said, apparently referring to the US, which seeks to push through Donald Trump’s peace plan despite the opinion of European partners.

The President of Ukraine also emphasized that the current work on preparing relevant international agreements is of fundamental importance. It is aimed at ensuring long-term peace, and all partners must clearly understand the challenges and risks associated with this process.

"The principle now lies in preparing the appropriate agreement. This is not just a question of when the war will end, but also of how long there will be no next war," he added.

Thus, Zelenskyy called on international partners for coordinated action and a strategic approach to ensure that post-war peace is stable and long-lasting.

Trump’s peace plan

Recently, Ukrainian officials have been actively discussing the US peace plan with representatives of Donald Trump’s administration.

Initially, the plan included provisions unacceptable to Ukraine, including the complete withdrawal of Ukrainian forces from the Donetsk and Luhansk regions and the transfer of control over them to Russia.

However, following a meeting between Ukrainian and US officials in Geneva, the plan was revised — it no longer limits the size of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, among other changes. According to unconfirmed reports, the revised plan now contains 19 points instead of the original 28.

On Tuesday, December 2, US Special Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff will visit Moscow to present the document to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
