Russia launched deadly strikes on Kyiv just as the U.S. and Ukraine made progress on revising a peace plan, with analysts warning that the new changes will almost certainly be rejected by Moscow.
According to a report from MSN, Russia bombarded Kyiv with missiles overnight while U.S. and Ukrainian negotiators worked to revise the American-led 28-point peace plan to make it more acceptable to Kyiv. Although Moscow initially viewed the earlier draft as a possible basis for talks, analysts say the latest changes will likely be rejected by the Kremlin, which insists only “Trump’s draft” is workable. As U.S. officials attempt to keep negotiations alive — including meetings in Abu Dhabi — Russia continues to strike Ukrainian cities and signal that any settlement must heavily favor its interests, raising doubts that the renewed diplomatic effort will break the stalemate after nearly four years of war.
