A leaked U.S. peace proposal for Ukraine has ignited a firestorm of criticism, raising concerns about its origins, intent, and the message it sends to allies and adversaries alike. What was meant to be a diplomatic roadmap quickly unraveled into a crisis of confidence, exposing rifts within the American administration and deepening anxieties in Kyiv.
The leaked 28-point peace plan, linked to Trump-era officials, appeared to mirror Russian demands by requiring Ukraine to abandon NATO aspirations and cede territory—terms seen as tantamount to surrender. Its release followed secret talks with a Russian envoy before any consultation with Ukraine, sparking outrage among European allies and Ukrainian leaders. Domestically, President Zelenskyy faced mounting pressure amid a corruption scandal involving wartime profiteering, eroding public trust. The backlash forced U.S. officials to revise the plan, scaling it down to 20 points after 紧急 talks in Geneva. Despite these adjustments, skepticism remains over whether Russia will accept the revised terms, especially as attacks on Kyiv continue. Internal divisions within the U.S. administration—evident in conflicting statements from figures like J.D. Vance and Marco Rubio—further complicate the path to peace, leaving Ukraine’s future uncertain amid diplomatic turmoil.
