Sunday’s peace talks in Ukraine concluded, and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, speaking to reporters late Sunday evening in Geneva, announced that the delegations’ work would continue tomorrow, Orda.kz reports.
Rubio added that work on this plan had been underway for three weeks and had accelerated significantly in the last four days. He said Washington understood the parties’ priorities and red lines, which allowed them to create a fundamental document that is now being revised. However, it is too early to disclose details.
He noted that the U.S. plan contains between 26 and 28 points, depending on the version of the document, and that the final version will need to be approved at the presidential level.
Meanwhile, The Telegraph and Reuters published a European plan for peace in Ukraine on Sunday.
Trump’s plan has been considered too favorable to Moscow, as it envisions the transfer of significant territories to Russia, a reduction in the Ukrainian army, and a ban on NATO troops on Ukrainian territory.
The European plan is much more lenient toward Ukraine. Unlike Trump’s plan, it does not prohibit Ukraine from joining NATO.
After the negotiations, Rubio was asked about counter-proposals from Britain, Germany, and France, but he replied that he did not see any alternative option.
