U.S. Peace Proposal Reportedly Asks Ukraine to Cede Territory and Reduce Military

A new United States peace proposal would require Ukraine to make significant concessions to end the war with Russia, a senior Ukrainian government official says. The terms reportedly include ceding territory currently controlled by Russian forces. According to the official, the proposal also demands that Ukraine reduce the size of its army by more than half. This would significantly limit the country's military capacity. The details of the plan, as described by the source, suggest a potential shift in diplomatic efforts. The Ukrainian government has not yet publicly stated its official position on the reported proposal.
