The U.S. media reported on the new plan proposed by former U.S. President Trump to resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict, known as the "Trump Plan," which, according to the EU, actually amounts to demanding Ukraine's surrender. According to this plan, Ukraine would be forced to give up part of its territory and abandon its desire to join NATO, and significantly reduce its military strength.
The EU's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Kaja Kallas, was angry and publicly stated that the U.S. government's plan to resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict must be approved by both the EU and Ukraine. Kallas expressed regret that she did not see any concessions from Russia in the "Trump Plan" reported by Western media, while Europe views Ukraine as a "victim of aggression." Kallas believes that if Ukraine and Europe do not agree, Trump's plan cannot be implemented. Kallas specifically pointed out that the EU believes that Russia's unconditional ceasefire is the best guarantee for peace.
Russian President's Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov emphasized that in the dialogue between Russia and the United States on the Ukraine issue, there is nothing new to add other than what was discussed in Anchorage. Russia remains open to resolving the issue peacefully. However, such a solution must completely eliminate all the root causes of the conflict.
Commentary: As previously mentioned, the new version of Trump's plan to resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict is not favored by anyone, with Europe, Ukraine, and Russia all dissatisfied and unwilling to accept it. In fact, this is easy to understand. The Russia-Ukraine conflict is essentially a result of NATO expansion led by the United States. The direct catalyst was sparked by former President Biden. The United States remains a deep participant in the Russia-Ukraine conflict to this day. Under such circumstances, where the United States is both a player and a referee, how can it maintain an objective and fair attitude in resolving the Russia-Ukraine conflict? Moreover, Trump still has a confused approach to resolving the Russia-Ukraine conflict, failing to seriously understand history and reality, and instead formulating plans based solely on his imagination and the United States' arrogance. It is normal for such mediation to fail.
