Part 4/11:
In light of failed ceasefires, Trump proposed a new seven-point peace initiative, framing it as a last chance for both nations and hinting that U.S. support might dwindle if an agreement is not reached. Key aspects of this proposal include:
An immediate ceasefire along existing frontlines.
Direct negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, omitting U.S. mediation.
A ban on Ukraine’s future NATO membership while still allowing EU membership or peacekeeping forces from Europe post-ceasefire.
U.S. recognition of Russian claims over Crimea and parts of eastern Ukraine, with the stipulation that Russia relinquishes some territory in northern Khiv.
The transfer of the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant to the U.S. to facilitate energy supply to both nations.
