The Telegraph newspaper publishes the European peace plan proposed instead of the American one. It contains 24 points.
Trump's 28-point plan is published HERE. Here is what is included in the European peace plan:
-
Cessation of war and agreements guaranteeing that it will not be repeated, to establish a permanent basis for sustainable peace and security.
-
Both sides of the conflict commit to a complete and unconditional ceasefire in the air, on land, and at sea.
-
Both sides immediately begin negotiations on the technical implementation of ceasefire monitoring with the participation of the U.S. and European countries.
-
International ceasefire monitoring is introduced under the leadership of the U.S. and Ukraine's partners. Monitoring will be predominantly remote using satellites, drones, and other technological means, with a flexible ground component to investigate alleged violations.
-
A mechanism is created through which the parties can report ceasefire violations, as well as for investigating such violations and discussing corrective measures.
-
Russia unconditionally returns all deported and illegally displaced Ukrainian children. The process will be supported by international partners.
-
The parties to the conflict exchange all prisoners of war (the principle of “all for all”). Russia releases all civilian detainees.
-
After ensuring the stability of the ceasefire, the parties take measures for humanitarian relief, including family visits across the contact line.
-
Ukraine's sovereignty is respected and confirmed. Ukraine is not forced into a neutral status.
-
Ukraine receives strong legally binding security guarantees, including from the U.S. (analogous to an agreement similar to Article 5), to prevent future aggression.
-
No restrictions are placed on the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the defense industry, including international cooperation.
-
The guaranteeing states will represent a special group of European and willing non-European countries. Ukraine has the right to independently decide on the presence, armament, and operations of friendly forces invited by its government.
-
Ukraine's membership in NATO depends on consensus within the Alliance.
-
Ukraine becomes a member of the EU.
-
Ukraine is ready to remain a non-nuclear state within the NPT.
-
Territorial issues will be discussed and resolved after a complete and unconditional ceasefire.
-
Territorial negotiations begin from the current line of control.
-
After agreeing on territorial issues, both Russia and Ukraine commit not to change them by force.
-
Ukraine regains control over the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (with U.S. involvement) as well as over the Kakhovka dam. A mechanism for transferring control will be established.
-
Ukraine receives unobstructed passage on the Dnieper River and control over the Kinburn Spit.
-
Ukraine and its partners engage in economic cooperation without restrictions.
-
Ukraine will be fully restored and receive financial compensation, including from Russian sovereign assets, which will remain frozen until Russia compensates Ukraine for damages.
-
Sanctions imposed against Russia since 2014 may be gradually and partially eased after achieving sustainable peace, with the possibility of reinstatement in case of violation of the peace agreement (the “snapback” mechanism).
-
Separate negotiations will begin on the European security architecture involving all OSCE states.
