Trump-Backed 28-Point Peace Plan for Ukraine War Gains Momentum
A potential breakthrough may be emerging in the Russia-Ukraine conflict as former U.S. President Donald Trump has quietly approved a detailed 28-point peace plan, aiming to bring an end to the prolonged and devastating war in Eastern Europe. The development was first reported by NBC News, and officials indicate that the plan has been developed over several weeks with input from senior U.S. officials.
The proposal involved consultations with both Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev and Ukrainian representatives, although specific details of the plan have not been disclosed, and it remains subject to negotiation among the key stakeholders. According to Axios, the framework draws inspiration from Trump’s earlier 20-point Gaza peace plan, reflecting a broader approach to resolving international conflicts. Recently, a U.S. Army delegation visited Kyiv to discuss military strategy and explore ways to reinvigorate the stalled peace process.
The Russia-Ukraine war, which began in February 2022, has become Europe’s most significant conflict in decades. Intense fighting continues across eastern and southern Ukraine, with drone strikes and long-range attacks causing widespread destruction and humanitarian suffering. Ukraine has focused on defending its territory with support from Western nations, while Russia seeks to consolidate control over occupied regions, leading to a prolonged stalemate marked by thousands of casualties and massive displacement.
Observers note that the introduction of this 28-point peace framework could represent a turning point in diplomatic efforts to end the conflict, though its success will depend on cooperation from all parties involved.
