Kremlin: Europe, Ukraine Changes Undermine US Peace Proposals for Ukraine War

  • Kremlin states European and Ukrainian modifications to US peace proposals do not enhance prospects for a lasting resolution to the war in Ukraine.
  • US-drafted proposals were initially perceived by Europe and Ukraine as overly favorable to Russia, prompting their own additions.
  • Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov confirmed these changes would not improve the chances of achieving long-term peace.
  • Putin's special envoy Kirill Dmitriev met US officials in Florida, with talks expected to continue.
  • Ukrainian President Zelenskiy expressed support for three-way talks (US, Russia, Ukraine) if they facilitate prisoner exchanges and leader meetings, a proposal the Kremlin dismisses as not seriously discussed.

Why It Matters: Kremlin dismisses European and Ukrainian revisions to US peace plans, stating they hinder peace in Ukraine.
