Russian President Vladimir Putin’s foreign affairs adviser, Yuri Ushakov, said Thursday that the Kremlin has not officially received the initial US peace proposal on ending the war in Ukraine, though officials have seen a copy obtained through informal channels.
Contact is ongoing, including by telephone, but no one has yet sat down at a roundtable to discuss this point by point,” Ushakov told Russian state media, describing the current diplomatic stage as preliminary. Representatives from the United States, Russia, and Ukraine met earlier this week, but no detailed negotiations have yet taken place.
In Kyiv, Ukrainian officials declined to confirm whether US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, who has recently taken a visible role in advancing peace efforts, would visit Ukraine in the coming days, as US President Donald Trump suggested on Tuesday. Trump’s peace plan, unveiled last week, has prompted intense international maneuvering and mixed reactions.
Early reports suggested the plan leaned toward Russian demands for halting Moscow’s invasion. However, following weekend talks in Geneva between US and Ukrainian officials, President Volodymyr Zelensky said the proposal “could be workable,” though several core issues remain unresolved.
