In the latest developments surrounding the Ukraine-Russia conflict, former U.S. President Donald Trump’s advisors, Kit Kelley and Fred Fleitz, have presented a conditional peace strategy. The plan, which hinges on Ukraine’s agreement to negotiate with Russia, would see the U.S. withhold further military aid unless Kiev enters talks. Trump, who has reacted positively to the proposal, might adopt this approach if he returns to the Oval Office.Russian President Vladimir Putin has countered with his own peace proposal, demanding the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from Luhansk, Donetsk, Kherson, and Zaporizhia regions, as well as Ukraine’s commitment to remain outside of NATO as prerequisites for a ceasefire. The West and Ukraine have so far rejected Putin’s conditions, which experts criticize as a ploy to divide allies and regroup Russian forces.The Kremlin insists that any peace plan must reflect the current realities on the ground. Despite Trump’s interest, his press secretary, Steven Chung, has emphasized that only official statements from Trump or authorized campaign members should be considered as policy. The unfolding situation presents a complex diplomatic challenge, with the potential to reshape the U.S. stance on the conflict and influence the geopolitical landscape.
