According to the media, the vice -president of the United States, JD Vance, indicated that negotiations involve the possibility of “territorial exchanges” between the two countries, to stabilize the situation, maintaining a division similar to the current one.
The United States, under the administration of Donald Trump, worked on a series of proposals to reach a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia, although many details have not yet been officially disclosed. According to the media, the vice -president of the United States, JD Vance, indicated that negotiations involve the possibility of “territorial exchanges” between the two countries, to stabilize the situation, maintaining a division similar to the current one.
According to the newspaper Washington PostThe United States proposes to recognize Crimea as a Russian territory, a requirement of Vladimir Putin. The website Assios It speaks of a recognition of the Russian control over the peninsula attached in 2014.
However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has rejected this idea with emphasis, stating that Crimea is an integral part of Ukraine. “There is nothing to discuss. This is against our Constitution. It is our territory. The territory of the Ukrainian people,” said Zelensky to journalists in Kiev. THE Assios It also mentions the possibility of recognition of the areas occupied by Russia in the Ukrainian regions of Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson and Zaporíjia.
The United States will abandon the negotiations if the agreement is not closed
Vice -president of the United States JD Vance said that Russia and Ukraine must reach a peace or Washington agreement no longer mediate negotiations. This possibility is not surprising Gustavo Palomares, specialist in international relations and UND professor of Madrid. “It is very likely that Trump withdraws from the negotiations,” said the political scientist RFI.
“Trump will lead to the maximum so that his peace plan will go on. He will probably not exercise the same pressure on the Western allies of Ukraine. All this, of course, following the line of interests that Putin will favor,” says the expert in international relations.
“Trump’s personality, and also knowing his level of involvement in relation to his promise to end the war in Ukraine – which is the central point of the United States foreign policy in his first 100 days of government – I would say that it would be nothing strange that if there was no agreement in London, if there is no favorable position on Trump’s bet in the peace process, it is very likely to keep his promise Negotiations “, concluded Palomari.
Corruption
Vance declared during a visit to India on Wednesday that his country made a “very explicit proposal” to both sides, which includes the need to make exchanges of territory “, and it is time to say yes or the United States will retire from this process”.
“This is the time, I think, to do, if not the final step, one of the final passages, which is, in general, to say that we will stop the massacres, we will leave the territorial lines at a level close to what they are today,” added Vance. “This certainly means that Ukrainians and Russians will have to give up part of the territory that currently control,” he said.
However, the first Ukrainian deputy minister Ioulia Svyrydenko warned on Wednesday in a post X that “our people will not accept a frozen conflict disguised as peace”.
Born, Putin requirement
As for NATO, the United States could offer the guarantee that Ukraine did not join the alliance, which is also a Putin requirement. However, the adhesion of Ukraine to the European Union would remain a possibility, which would generate different implications for the global geopolitical scenario.
According to the Financial timesVladimir Putin proposed at the beginning of April to the US emissary Steve Witkoff to stop his invasion and freeze the first line if the United States recognize Russia’s sovereignty on Crimea and the non -adhesion of Ukraine to NATO.
When asked about Wednesday, the Cremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov replied to the Russian Agency Ria New That “many false are published right now, even by respectable publications. So it is necessary to listen only to primary sources”.
The Moscow representative also highlighted in a press conference that “the projects as a result cannot be publicly advertised. As soon as they become public, they lose their effectiveness. Therefore, this work is naturally conducted with total discretion”, insisting on the “need to be very prudent with the dissemination of such information”.
Another key point of the negotiations involves a “robust guarantee of safety” for Ukraine, which would include a group of European countries and possibly outside Europe, but without clear definitions of how this commitment would be realized. Ukraine, however, would have a preference for military assistance directed by the United States to strengthen this security agreement.
In addition, the suspension of sanctions against Russia could be taken into consideration if a peace agreement is reached, while Ukraine would receive help for reconstruction and financial compensation, although the financing of these measures is still indefinite.
Trump wants to control nuclear plants and rare minerals
Donald Trump would like to put the Zaporjia nuclear center, currently occupied by the Russians, under American control. Volodymyr Zelensky is also against this proposal. According to the AssiosThe plan provides that the central remains in the Ukrainian territory, but is managed by the United States.
Finally, the proposed economic agreement provides for access to the natural and strategic minerals of Ukraine, with negotiations already underway between Washington and Kiev. The proposals of the United States aim for a diplomatic resolution of the conflict, but remain sources of strong resistance from Ukraine. The Kremlin, in turn, was discreet, underlining the need for caution and confidentiality in the discussions.
Parallel to the discussions between Americans, European and Ukrainians, Washington and Kiev signed a “memo of intention” last week, a first step to complete a complex agreement on access to the natural resources and strategic minerals of Ukraine.
