Yurii Romaniuk, an expert on international affairs and head of the All-Ukrainian Public Organization Ukraine in NATO, stated this on Espreso TV."It is worth starting with the fact that this is not the Witkoff and Dmitriev plan. This is a new version of the plan with a maximalist version of the 2022 Istanbul track, which was rejected by Ukraine. And what they are offering us today is definitely not a peace plan, but our capitulation under the patronage of Putin and Trump," Romaniuk explained.The expert emphasized that Ukraine will not be able to agree to the proposed terms of the agreement from the U.S., as it would be a disaster for the country."In fact, this plan is a diagnosis of the complete degradation of the diplomacy and intellectual abilities of the U.S. and Trump's team. After all, to offer such nonsense to Ukraine in the fourth year of a full-scale war is a catastrophe and a disgrace for the U.S. It does not take into account any of Ukraine's interests and imposes a maximalist scenario of Putin's wishes, with mines laid under the guise of leasing territories. It's a trap! If Ukraine were to hypothetically sign such an agreement, it would be a disaster. We would lose the legal right to these territories, as well as the right to reparations. There is no EU, no Ukraine. Negotiations are being held at the table without Ukraine, but we are on the menu. They are simply dividing us. This is all being done to overshadow the domestic political situation in the U.S. The Epstein case is being discussed very heavily there right now. Now Trump has no choice but to give all researchers all the Epstein files, where he may not be presented in a very good light. Therefore, he needs to overshadow this information with supposed successes in peacekeeping activities," he concluded.Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has obtained a draft U.S.-backed framework to end the war with Russia that reportedly demands significant territorial concessions and military restrictions, sparking immediate resistance from European allies who view the terms as tantamount to surrender.
