US Plans to Propose Seven-Point Plan to Resolve Ukraine Crisis at London Meeting

April 23, according to the British Daily Telegraph, the United States plans to propose a seven-point plan aimed at resolving the Ukrainian crisis at the meeting to be held in London on the same day. Representatives from the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Ukraine will attend the meeting.

The specific plan is as follows:

· Immediate ceasefire: The hostilities between Ukraine and Russia will cease immediately;

· Direct negotiations: Start direct peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia;

· Abandon NATO membership: Ukraine will abandon its intention to join NATO but can retain the right to apply for EU membership;

· Recognize Crimea's归属 to Russia: Recognize Russia's sovereignty over Crimea;

· De facto recognition of Russian-controlled regions: The United States will recognize certain regions controlled by Russia as part of its territory;

· Resource cooperation agreement: Ukraine will sign a resource cooperation agreement with the United States;

· Rebuild US-Russia relations: Including lifting US sanctions on Russia and restarting cooperation in fields such as energy.

De facto recognition rather than legal recognition of Russian-controlled regions will leave potential hazards for future territorial disputes between Ukraine and Russia.

Zelenskyy will not accept this plan, and he will not accept any ceasefire plan.
