Summary

  • Russia is said to have effectively rejected President Trump's proposal for a 'ceasefire on the current front.'
  • Russia still insists on full control of the entire Donbas as a precondition for a peace agreement.
  • This rejection suggests that war risks and geopolitical uncertainty may persist.

Russia is said to have effectively rejected a 'ceasefire on the current front' plan proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump. Russia continues to insist that full control of the entire Donbas region in eastern Ukraine is a precondition for a peace agreement.

On the 21st (local time), Reuters reported, citing two U.S. government officials, that "Russia delivered an informal notification to the U.S. last weekend, again demanding full control over the entire Donbas region."

This repeats Russia's previous position and effectively rejects President Trump's proposed plan for a "ceasefire on the current front and the start of negotiations." President Trump had earlier said that "a realistic agreement is needed for an early end to the Ukraine war."
