The document, reprinted in full by the news outlet, contains numerous points that show the diverging viewpoints of the U.S. on one side, and Ukraine and its European allies on the other as they seek to end Russia’s full-scale invasion.

The Donald Trump administration has so far refused to offer Kyiv any security guarantees, but the Ukrainian proposal calls for an “Article 5-like agreement” backed by the U.S. while NATO membership for Kyiv remains off the table.

Earlier this week it was reported the U.S. could give de jure recognition to Russia’s control over occupied Crimea, but the Ukrainian and European proposal insists that “territorial issues will be discussed and resolved after a full and unconditional ceasefire.”

Reuters published details of the U.S. plan, confirming earlier reports and revealing key disagreements with Ukrainian and European positions.

The proposal also demands that sanctions on Russia only be eased after a “sustainable peace” has been achieved, a move the White House is reportedly considering implementing even before a peace deal has been agreed on.

Other points call for the “return (of) all deported and illegally displaced Ukrainian children,” the implementation of the minerals deal, and that Ukraine “will be fully reconstructed and compensated financially,” including through the use of Russia’s frozen assets.

Washington’s allies have been voicing growing alarm over the Trump administration’s proposed framework to end the war in Ukraine, which would allow Russia to retain seized Ukrainian territory.

Multiple diplomatic sources told CNN that officials in Europe and Asia are bracing for the outcome of renewed U.S.-Russia talks and fear the plan sends a dangerous message.

“If one country in Europe is forced to give up parts of its legal territory… no country in Europe or elsewhere can feel safe, NATO or no NATO,” one diplomat told CNN.

In high-level meetings held in London on April 23, U.S., European, and Ukrainian officials reportedly made progress in narrowing differences.

U.S. Special Envoy Keith Kellogg called the talks “candid, positive and productive.” At the same time, a European official said negotiators had “managed to convince the Ukrainians to convince themselves to get in a more U.S. administration-friendly position.”

Still, the core issue — territorial concessions — remains fraught. A German official acknowledged that “the Ukrainians are coming around,” but emphasized they “have red lines they cannot cross.”

“Russia has consistently rejected (all proposals) and continues to manipulate the world, trying to deceive the United States,” Zelensky said.

Putin has announced a so-called “humanitarian” truce in Russia’s war against Ukraine to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe. The U.S. has intensified efforts to reach a settlement in separate peace talks with Ukraine and Russia.

Zelensky slammed Putin’s proposal for a short-lived truce and pointed to Russia’s strikes on civilian targets as proof that Russia does not want to end its war against Ukraine.

“We value human lives, not parades. That’s why we believe — and the world believes — that there is no reason to wait until May 8,” Zelensky added.

On May 9, Russia holds grandiose military parades in celebration of the end of World War II in Europe. Ukraine and most European nations mark May 8 as Victory in Europe Day.

“The ceasefire should not be just for a few days, only to return to killing afterward. It must be immediate, full, and unconditional — for at least 30 days to ensure it is secure and guaranteed,” Zelensky continued, reiterating his calls for a full ceasefire.

Zelensky called for increased international pressure on Russia to stop its war amid a lack of agreement from Moscow on a ceasefire.

“(E)ach new day brings… clear proof that pressure must be exerted on Russia — and it must be strong enough — to force them in Moscow to end this war, a war that only Russia needs,” the president added.

The Kremlin has shown signs it is unwilling to move forward on a peace deal with Ukraine. Russian authorities have listed maximalist demands in ceasefire negotiations with Ukraine and the U.S.

Ukraine has already agreed to a U.S.-proposed full 30-day ceasefire, saying that Kyiv is ready if Russia also agrees to the terms. So far, Moscow has refused.

Zelensky has repeatedly called for a full 30-day ceasefire, stating Ukraine insists on an “immediate, full, and unconditional ceasefire.”
