accepted a revised peace plan<\/a>. The original 28-point plan brokered by the Trump administration was widely criticized for being too one-sided in favor of Russia.<\/p>\n“The positive is the whole Europe finally came together as one block. And they had; they all participated in negotiations with United States,” Dmytriv Kapeniak said.<\/p>\n
Europeans and some Republicans in Congress spoke out against the original peace plan.<\/p>\n
The Trump administration tweaked it and presented it to Russia, but Russia responded with more attacks on Ukraine.<\/p>\n
Kutnyy is now doubtful a peace plan will work without Russia agreeing to a ceasefire. Dmytriv Kapeniak says the United States must include Europe on any plan.<\/p>\n
“The solution is in United States working with Europe to end this war, to put pressure on Putin and because that’s the only person that really can end this war,” Dmytriv Kapeniak said.<\/p>\n
Ukrainians in Illinois hope the Thanksgiving holiday does not slow down any momentum or public attention given to the peace talks this week.<\/p>\n
