Ukraine rejects US plan: We seek peace, not capitulation
US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky

According to the Financial Times, Ukrainian officials say the document reiterates the Kremlin's maximalist demands and is unacceptable in its current form.

Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, canceled his meeting with Volodymyr Zelensky in Turkey after realizing that the Ukrainian president did not want to discuss the US peace plan, Axios reports.

Sources say Zelensky arrived with his own proposal, coordinated with Europe, and insisted on talks in a broader format.

Trump supported Witkoff's decision to cancel the meeting because he saw no prospects for progress.

"Now we will wait. The ball is in Zelensky's court," said an unidentified US official.

He added that Zelensky could come to Washington to discuss the new American plan if he wanted.

Journalist Christopher Miller confirmed that the document was delivered to Kiev through Witkoff and the head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund, Kirill Dmitriev. According to him, Zelensky was unhappy with the proposal.
