Bloomberg reported the information.The war-torn nation's latest proposal arrived as Trump convened a high-stakes phone call with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. The discussion, confirmed by the White House and outlined in statements from Berlin and London, focused heavily on finding a path forward to end the war."We discussed Ukraine in pretty strong words, and we'll see what happens. I mean, we're waiting to hear answers before we progress," Trump told reporters at the White House on Wednesday. "I think it's time to get that war settled, and I think it's a war that can be settled," he added, noting that thousands continue to die each week. "We don't want to be wasting time. Sometimes you have to let people fight it out, and sometimes you don't."According to Axios journalist Barak Ravid, who reported on social media platform X, Ukraine delivered the Trump administration its response to the latest draft of the U.S. peace plan on December 10, with Ukrainian and U.S. officials confirming the submission.While weeks of negotiations have produced a framework more acceptable to Kyiv, significant obstacles remain, particularly regarding territorial control and security guarantees. Ukrainian Defense Minister Denys Shmyhal, speaking Wednesday at the Aspen Security Forum in Washington, emphasized that while Ukraine is prepared to discuss peace along current front lines, a ceasefire must come before any formal negotiations begin."Intensive work on the peace plan is continuing and will continue in the coming days," stated a readout from the British government following the leaders' call. The statement noted that participants "agreed that this was a critical moment — for Ukraine, its people and for shared security across the Euro-Atlantic region."Three separate documents are currently under discussion: an overall framework for ending the war, security guarantees for Ukraine, and a reconstruction plan. On Monday, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told Bloomberg that negotiators remain divided over seven "sensitive issues," including security arrangements and control of eastern territories.European nations have expressed concerns about pressure from the Trump administration on Zelenskyy to accept terms that heavily favor Russia. Trump himself added to that pressure Wednesday by questioning when Ukraine would hold new elections—a move Zelenskyy has said requires security guarantees from the U.S. and its allies.Whether Russian leader Vladimir Putin will accept any deal remains uncertain. Following discussions with Trump's envoys in Moscow last week, the Kremlin indicated some proposals were acceptable while rejecting others. Putin continues to demand Ukraine surrender portions of the eastern Donetsk region that Russian forces have failed to capture after nearly four years of fighting—a condition Zelenskyy and European allies have repeatedly rejected.Finnish President Alexander Stubb offered a more optimistic assessment Tuesday, suggesting the parties were "quite close" to reaching an agreement.
