The United States and Ukraine sought on Monday (November 24, 2025) to narrow the gaps in a peace plan to end the war with Russia after agreeing to modify a U.S. proposal that Kyiv and its European allies saw as a Kremlin wish list.
Washington and Kyiv said in a joint statement they had drafted a “refined peace framework” after talks in Geneva on Sunday (November 23, 2025). Though there were no specifics, the dialogue received a cautious welcome from some of Ukraine’s allies.
Ukraine’s delegation to the talks with U.S. officials in Switzerland was returning home on Monday (November 24, 2025) to report back, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said. U.S. President Donald Trump hinted at new progress.
“Is it really possible that big progress is being made in Peace Talks between Russia and Ukraine??? Don’t believe it until you see it, but something good just may be happening,” Mr. Trump wrote on Truth Social.
