Clashing views within the \u201ccollective West\u201d and in the US itself are stalling any settlement, the Russian president has said<\/strong><\/p>\n

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said the key issue stalling the Ukraine peace process is the struggle of conflicting views within the West itself over how to bring the fighting to an end.<\/p>\n

Speaking at a press conference in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan on Thursday, Putin cited US-Russia contacts, including his Alaska meeting with President Donald Trump, saying he believed they had clarified where both sides stood and what steps could help halt the hostilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not about us. It\u2019s about the struggle of different opinions in the collective West and in the United States itself about what is happening and what needs to be done in order to stop the war,\u201d<\/em> Putin said.<\/p>\n

The remarks follow a Ukraine peace proposal floated by the Trump administration to end the conflict. According to leaked versions of the plan, Kiev would have to abandon ambitions to join NATO, relinquish territorial claims, and cap its army at 600,000.<\/p>\n

Caught off guard by the draft, Kiev\u2019s Western European backers prepared a counter-proposal, but with key issues such as territorial concessions, Ukraine\u2019s NATO bid, and the size of the Ukrainian army reportedly removed or amended. It reportedly includes security guarantees for Ukraine modeled on NATO\u2019s Article 5 collective-defense clause, committing guarantor states to defend Ukraine against potential aggression.<\/p>\n

Vladimir Zelensky has since said he wants to meet with Trump to discuss the plan further and suggesting that European supporters also attend. Trump has said he\u2019ll meet Zelensky when the peace deal is \u201cin its final stages.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Moscow welcomed Trump\u2019s efforts, saying the framework could serve as the basis for a final settlement. Russia also accused Kiev\u2019s European backers of trying to undermine peace efforts and distort the plan \u201cfor their own agenda.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Asked about the US peace plan, Putin said no draft document exists, only a range of issues outlined by Washington. He said the US had taken into account Russia\u2019s position in \u201ccertain areas,\u201d<\/em> but that other \u201cfundamental\u201d<\/em> issues require serious discussions.<\/p>\n

A US delegation is expected to come to Moscow next week to discuss the proposed peace plan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
