BREAKING: Putin Says Trump’s Thanksgiving Day Peace Proposal Could Finally End War in Ukraine
Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that the Trump management’s peace plan could serve as a foundation to end the war in Ukraine. Putin confirmed that Russia has received the draft proposal from Washington, aiming to agree on a cessation of hostilities by the following Thursday. The plan, a 28-point document, reportedly demands significant concessions from Ukraine, including reducing its armed forces, giving up claims to certain territories, and forbidding NATO troops on ukrainian soil. In return, the plan promises Ukraine “reliable security guarantees.” The Trump administration is pressing Ukraine to sign the deal by Thanksgiving, warning that U.S. support may be reduced if Kyiv refuses. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has requested changes to the draft, but details of possible amendments remain unclear.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday that the Trump administration’s peace plan could “lay the foundation” for ending the war in Ukraine.
Putin spoke to Russian media and confirmed that Moscow has received the draft proposal from Washington to agree to an end to hostilities by next Thursday.
He also said the plan could serve as the basis for a “final peace settlement.”
“We have this draft; we received it through existing channels of communication with the U.S. administration,” Putin said.
He added, “I believe it can also serve as a basis for a final peace settlement.”

Barron’s confirmed Putin’s response to the proposal.
The plan is the same 28-point document that was announced Friday.
The Trump administration is urging Ukraine to sign the deal by Thanksgiving, according to Friday reports from The Washington Post and Axios.
Officials warned that U.S. support could be scaled back if Kyiv refuses.
U.S. Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll delivered the message to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday.
Officials told The Post that the proposal demands major concessions from Ukraine. Those include a reduction of its armed forces and giving up some territory that Russia has not taken by force, but has argued a claim to.
Zelensky asked for changes to the draft on Thursday, but it is unclear which parts could be updated. Under the plan, Zelensky and Trump would sign first, with Russia signing later.
Ukraine would be barred from hosting NATO troops and would need to reduce its military to no more than 600,000 troops.
In return, the plan promises “reliable security guarantees” for Ukraine.
