In Washington, Trump told reporters ahead of the Kennedy Center Honors that he was a little bit disappointed Zelensky had not yet read the latest US peace proposal addressing the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The three days of talks between American and Ukrainian negotiators concluded without a breakthrough, as Kyiv officials pledged to continue discussions in good faith.
The 28-point peace proposal, authored by the United States, aims to bring the war to an end, though Zelensky’s acceptance remains unclear. Zelensky’s team reportedly supports the plan, but there has been no public commitment or rejection from Kyiv.
Zelensky later said Ukraine is determined to pursue peace in good faith and will continue substantive talks with the American side. The talks involve Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, U.S. and Ukrainian negotiators, and Kyiv officials, with broad international attention.
Moscow has watched from the sidelines as progress remains uncertain, underscoring the delicate balance of diplomacy surrounding the US-led effort.
