US, Europe Draft Four-Point Peace Plan for Ukraine
The proposal would pair a ceasefire with military guarantees, reconstruction funding and an energy deal that could ease sanctions on Moscow.
- On Monday, The Washington Post reported that U.S. and European partners are drafting a four-point peace plan for Ukraine, spearheaded by U.S. envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff.
- The proposal aims to freeze fighting along the current front line, allowing Russia to maintain control over occupied territories in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions while negotiations continue.
- Planners envision a reconstruction framework involving The World Bank and BlackRock, with columnist David Ignatius reporting "Ukraine's reconstruction would be the first pillar," alongside NATO Article 5 security guarantees.
- Negotiators proposed an energy deal carrying Russian oil and gas to Europe with shared revenues, while asking Kyiv for detailed cost estimates and anti-corruption guarantees to secure funding.
- Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov recently rejected a 60-day ceasefire proposal, and skepticism persists regarding whether Russian President Vladimir Putin is prepared to accept a comprehensive settlement.
