On Sunday, Trump took to social media to criticize European and Ukrainian leaders for not making progress in ending the war.
Since the presentation of the 28-point US plan to President Zelensky last week, Kyiv’s European allies have called for “additional work” on the proposal.
One European official expressed concern that Trump could end support for Ukraine out of frustration, leaving Zelenskyi and his country in a precarious position.
“This is a scenario we are obviously preparing for,” he said.
At the same time, European diplomats are looking forward to further meetings between France, Germany and Great Britain during the next week. Other possible participants include the leaders of Poland and Finland and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
“We are trying to come up with something that could be offered as a counter-proposal,” the European diplomat said.
Prehistory:
- It was reported that as a result of the negotiations in Geneva held on November 23, Ukraine and the USA prepared an updated and updated framework document on peace, which, in particular, will deal with respect for the sovereignty of Ukraine.
- In addition, Great Britain, Germany and France prepared counter-proposals to the draft American “peace plan” with 28 points, designed to make them more beneficial for Ukraine.
- The counter-proposal, developed, according to Reuters, by Britain, France and Germany, is based on the “peace plan” of the United States, but corrects some points, in some cases – proposes to remove them.
