President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky expressed doubts that Putin will accept any peace plan. In an interview with Axios, he noted his readiness to consider the proposal of British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, based on the settlement of the conflict in Gaza.
Zelensky emphasized that the plan should be concise. Several key points, such as a ceasefire, could form the basis for discussion in the coming days. However, skepticism about the reaction of the Russian leader remains.
Context and Prospects
Last week, Keir Starmer proposed a peace solution inspired by Trump’s plan for Gaza. Zelensky discussed this issue with the British Prime Minister and European leaders. Despite the differences between the situations in Gaza and Ukraine, the president is ready to work on the proposal.
US Peace Plan
In September, the White House presented its version of a peace plan for Gaza. According to the document, it is proposed to create a Peace Council with the participation of the US President and former British Prime Minister Blair. Hamas will receive amnesty, and Israel will not occupy the Gaza Strip. These proposals have become part of the global context in which Ukraine is seeking its solutions.
Zelensky continues to seek paths to peace, despite complex international relations and internal challenges. His cautious optimism and readiness for dialogue remain important elements in this complex political game.
