Volodymyr Zelensky Faces an Impossible Dilemma for Ukraine

Ukraine must decide on a US-brokered 28-point peace plan that includes territorial concessions and limits on its military or risk losing US intelligence and weapons support, Reuters reported.

  • Donald Trump set a hard deadline, threatening intelligence and weapons cuts if Ukraine rejects a 28-point, US-brokered plan by Thursday that experts say appears to favour Russia.
  • After a Washington summit last month, the US prepared the plan amid Ukrainian forces facing setbacks as Russia holds almost one-fifth of Ukraine along a 750-mile front.
  • Under the proposal, Kyiv would cede land, limit its military, and forswear NATO membership while the US assumes unspecified security guarantees, invites Russia reintegration, and excludes European allies from peacekeeping.
  • Facing a looming domestic deadline, Kyiv has intensified calls with allies; Zelensky held Friday talks with UK, Germany and France leaders and US Vice President JD Vance, with a Trump call next week, while analysts warned accepting risks fresh elections within 100 days.
  • Analysts and campaigners sharply criticized the proposal's tilt toward Russia, with Tim Ash and William Browder condemning its benefits to Russia as European leaders urge guarantees implying Ukraine's sovereignty.
