Nov. 21 (UPI) -- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told his people that the country "may soon face an extremely difficult choice" in response to the peace plan put forward by the President Donald Trump administration.
"Either the loss of dignity or the risk of losing a key partner. Either 28 complicated points or the hardest winter yet -- and the risks that follow," the Kyiv Independent reported Zelensky said on Telegram.
The speech came just one day after U.S. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll delivered the plan to Zelensky, who said he is willing to negotiate with Trump.
The president on Thursday indicated that he is giving Ukraine until Thanksgiving to accept the plan. He said on Fox News Radio's Brian Kilmeade Show, "Well, we have, you know, I've had a lot of deadlines, but if things are working well, you tend to extend the deadlines," Trump to a question about the deadline. "But Thursday is, we think, an appropriate time."
