A reported U.S. peace proposal for Ukraine has surfaced, generating strong reactions from multiple quarters.
The framework reportedly calls for Ukraine to cede certain territories and reduce the size of its military. It also includes measures such as phasing out particular weapons systems, granting official status to the Russian language in Ukraine, and recognizing the Ukrainian branch of the Russian Orthodox Church. While Moscow says it is monitoring the discussions, Kyiv may strongly resist any plan that sacrifices its territorial integrity. The proposal could reshape geopolitics: some analysts see it as a path to peace, while others warn it may amount to rewarding aggression.
