Ukraine must choose between losing a key ally or losing dignity agreeing to the US proposal, the politician has said<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vladimir Zelensky has said Ukraine must brace for a tough choice between accepting the “28 difficult points”<\/em> received from the US or risk losing a key backer. His comments come after the submission of a proposal and the leaking of its purported text by a Ukrainian MP.<\/p>\n

According to Reuters, the administration of US President Donald Trump has threatened to cut off Ukraine from intelligence and military aid, should Kiev reject it.<\/p>\n

In a video address to Ukrainians on Friday, Zelensky stated that the country is going through “one of the most difficult moments in our history.”<\/em><\/p>\n

While not directly mentioning the US-proposed peace roadmap, he said that failure to accept the “difficult 28 points”<\/em> would likely result in the “most difficult… winter”<\/em> for Ukraine since the escalation of the conflict with Russia in February 2022. Kiev confirmed receiving the newly proposed peace plan from Washington on Thursday, but stopped short of revealing its contents.<\/p>\n

According to media reports, the roadmap features 28 points, including but not limited to the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from the parts of Russia’s Donbass it still controls, downsizing the country’s military, and giving up on NATO aspirations. Kiev would also reportedly be required to make Russian an official language. In exchange, it would presumably be offered Western security guarantees.<\/p>\n

In his Friday address to the nation, Zelensky said that Kiev would be working “calmly”<\/em> and “quickly”<\/em> with Washington and its European backers to ensure that “Ukraine’s national interests are taken into account.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The Ukrainian leader vowed to present unspecified “alternatives,”<\/em> while trying to avoid the impression that he “does not want peace.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Zelensky also mentioned his latest phone call with a number of EU leaders, expressing confidence that “Europe will be with us.”<\/em> He further claimed that Ukraine is “now the only shield”<\/em> protecting Europe from Russia.<\/p>\n

Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly dismissed as “nonsense”<\/em> claims made by some EU officials, who have accused Moscow of planning an attack on the bloc’s members.<\/p>\n

In recent months, Russian forces have been steadily advancing in the Donetsk People’s Republic, making significant gains. The Ukrainian military, by contrast, is facing severe personnel shortages.<\/p>\n

While Zelensky stopped short of directly acknowledging this in his latest speech, he did say that although Ukrainians are “made of steel… any metal”<\/em> may eventually break under pressure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
