Russian 'Wish List': Senators Say Marco Rubio Told Them Leaked Ukraine Peace Plan Is Not Trump's Deal
U.S. senators say the 28-point peace plan is a leaked Russian proposal, not endorsed by the Trump administration, raising concerns it rewards Moscow's aggression.
- U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio told lawmakers on November 22, 2025, the leaked 28-point peace plan is a Russian `wish list` that was received and shared, not endorsed.
- After receiving the document, intermediaries arranged to pass it to Ukraine, and Rubio told Sen. Mike Rounds the proposal was received, not recommended; Rubio had not posted on X by Saturday evening.
- Sen. Mike Rounds said `it looked more like it was written in Russian to begin with`, and lawmakers warned the plan would reward Moscow for its aggression.
- President Donald Trump did not push back Saturday when asked if he urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to accept the deal by Thanksgiving, while Russian President Vladimir Putin welcomed it as a potential peace basis.
- At the Halifax forum, which draws about 300 attendees, senators voiced concerns after Axios reported on November 18 that the Trump administration consulted Russia on a Ukraine peace plan, including a Democrat, an Independent, and a Republican not seeking reelection next year.
