At the end of last week, Ukraine received a new 28-point plan from the United States to end the war, developed by US President's special representative Steve Witkoff and Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev.
The details of the plan, which were published in the media, crossed Ukraine's previously announced “red lines”. In particular, they contained provisions on the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from the controlled territories of Donbas, a reduction in the size of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and an official rejection of the course towards NATO.
Adding to the drama was the deadline from the US side for Kyiv's response, which President Donald Trump set for November 27. And media reports that if Ukraine refused the plan, the US could deprive it of weapons and intelligence supplies.
However, over the weekend, a Ukrainian delegation held talks in Geneva with a US delegation led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio. According to media reports, the talks resulted in amendments to the plan, in particular, it was reduced to 19 points.
