On the surface, recent news that the Trump administration has been collaborating with Russia to devise a new peace plan for Ukraine potentially offers hope. Steve Witkoff, serving as Trump’s envoy, is spearheading the drafting of the agreement and has held extensive talks with Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev, according to an Axios report.
Based on available information, the proposal involves following the principles that Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to during their August meeting in Alaska. Specifically, the terms are structured around four pillars: peace in Ukraine, security guarantees, European security and the future of U.S. relations with Russia and Ukraine.
