Zelensky says ‘sensitive issues’ of Ukraine plan to be discussed with Trump
US and Ukraine are seeking to narrow differences over a peace framework after Trump’s plan was seen as favouring Russia
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Monday that a proposed peace plan now under discussion with the United States and Europe has incorporated “correct” points, but sensitive issues were to be discussed with US President Donald Trump.
“As of now, after [talks in] Geneva, there are fewer points, no longer 28, and many correct elements have been incorporated into this framework,” Zelensky said in his nightly video address.
“Our team has already reported today on the new draft of steps and this is truly the right approach. The sensitive issues, the most delicate points, I will discuss with President Trump.”
US and Ukrainian officials have sought to narrow the gaps between them over the plan. In a joint statement on Monday, Washington and Kyiv said they had drafted a “refined peace framework”, without offering specifics.
