Moscow offered peace through Donetsk, will Kyiv accept it?

A new turning point has emerged in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. US Special Representative Steve Whitkoff, in an interview with Fox News, stated that Moscow has proposed a ceasefire to Kyiv through the Donetsk region.

According to him, this proposal is of historical significance, but it could be a very difficult decision for Ukraine. "The Russians put the peace agreement on the table. It includes the Donetsk (Donetsk region of Ukraine) issue. This may seem unacceptable to Ukrainians. But no one has yet achieved such a change. This demonstrates (US President Donald Trump's) strong personal character and strong motivation to end conflict and eliminate human casualties. "We believe that we are approaching the end of the war," Whitkoff said.

He also stated in his statement that he plans to meet with Ukrainian representatives in New York this week. "There will be negotiations with the Ukrainians. I will meet them in New York. This is an important signal. We are also in contact with Russia every day. "I think that this process could end with a bilateral meeting between the presidents of Russia and Ukraine," the US representative added.

Thus, further steps are being taken that could determine the fate of the conflict. If the proposal works in practice, it can go down in history as one of the greatest diplomatic achievements on the path to peace. How Ukraine will react to this proposal is causing serious concern on the world political stage.
