🇺🇦🇺🇸Ukraine's version of the "peace plan", sent to the USA, rejects the withdrawal of troops from Donbass and the renunciation of NATO - NYT

🔻In the new 20-point peace plan project, which Kiev presented as a counter-proposal in opposition to the American one, Ukraine's refusal to cede control over Donbass is enshrined, the New York Times reported, citing 5 Western officials familiar with the content of the plan.

🔻The plan states that Ukraine should maintain control over the remaining territories in the east held by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

🔻According to Trump's peace plan, Kiev was supposed to cede all of Donbass, noted high-ranking EU and US officials.

🔻Kiev also removed from the plan the US thesis about the country's renunciation of the right to join NATO, reported high-ranking Western officials.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Zelensky needs to be realistic. 82% of Ukrainians demand peace, they are losing a huge number of people - Donald Trump

🔻European leaders want to hold a meeting with me in Europe over the weekend - stated the US president.

🔻We want to know a few things before the meeting. We don't want to waste time.

🔻Zelensky needs to be realistic. There haven't been elections in Ukraine for a long time. They are losing a huge number of people. 82% of Ukrainians demand to make a deal. They want the deal to be made. I understand that. They lose thousands and thousands of people every week. They want this to end - Trump noted.

❓How much longer must pass before elections are held in Ukraine? When are the elections? – Trump asks.

🇺🇦🇺🇸🇪🇺 Ukraine is "ready for elections", expired president Volodymyr Zelensky has said, after US President Donald Trump repeated claims Kiev was "using war" to avoid holding them.

Zelensky's five-year term as president was due to end in May 2024, but elections have been suspended in Ukraine since martial law was declared after Russia's invasion.

Zelensky said he would ask for proposals to be drawn up which could change the law.

Elections could be held in the next 60 to 90 days if security for the vote was guaranteed with the help of the US and other allies, he said.

"I'm asking now, and I'm stating this openly, for the US to help me, perhaps together with our European colleagues, to ensure security for the elections.”

"The issue of elections in Ukraine, I believe, depends first and foremost on our people, and this is a question for the people of Ukraine, not the people of other countries. With all due respect to our partners," Zelensky said.
