Geneva hosts Ukraine talks as Trump pushes peace plan | BBC News


Fresh talks on the future of the war in Ukraine are under way – with delegations from the US, Ukraine, and its European allies holding discussions in Geneva.

Andriy Yermak, a Ukrainian official, says the mood is constructive. And a US official tells the BBC there’s optimism – and momentum, as he put it.

But what’s on the table is a 28-point peace proposal for Ukraine that reflects Russia’s key demands. Everything from Ukraine abandoning hard-defended land, to a ban on joining Nato.

And US President Donald Trump has given Kyiv until Thursday to sign up.

Met with dismay in Ukraine, the deal’s controversial even in the US – where Secretary of State Marco Rubio had to confirm that this is in fact a US proposal, and not one written by the Kremlin.

Rubio is here today, as are officials from the European Union and UK anxious to ensure that if this is a starting point for a lasting peace deal – a big if – then Ukraine’s voice, and those of all its allies, must be heard.
