The real proposals Witkoff took to Russia and Ukraine are emerging

Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner reportedly traveled to Moscow and Kyiv with revised versions of earlier U.S. peace proposals, rather than an entirely new plan for ending the war in Ukraine.

The Financial Times reported that the documents presented to Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy had been adjusted to reflect changing circumstances after peace negotiations reached an impasse in February. Sources familiar with the talks said the U.S. representatives offered only a few new ideas and focused more heavily on reviving proposals that had previously failed to produce results.

The Kyiv Independent also reported that the envoys arrived with updated versions of earlier proposals. Those plans had included a ceasefire along the actual line where the armies were deployed. One of the most difficult disputes remained Donbas. Moscow demanded that Ukrainian forces withdraw even from areas that Russian troops had not captured, while Kyiv rejected those demands.

Ukrainform likewise reported that the talks addressed earlier proposals. It quoted Trump's envoy Jared Kushner as saying the delegation discussed many ideas with the Russian president, including proposals that had produced no results in the past. Zelenskyy said on Monday that he and his negotiating team were planning “further steps” after weekend talks with U.S. and European officials, but he did not specify what those steps would be.
