Ukraine talks in London downgraded: Kyiv rejects Trump's "final offer"

ai generated text

Peace talks on Ukraine in London were downgraded after U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio pulled out, raising concerns about Western unity. Ukraine still sent a senior delegation, rejecting a U.S. proposal that included controversial terms like denying NATO membership and recognizing Crimea as Russian. A deadly Russian drone strike during the talks highlighted the urgency of reaching a ceasefire.

Donald Trump
Republican Party
1. But 2,500 a week, and we're going to get it stopped, ideally. Now, if for some reason one of the two parties makes it very difficult, we're just going to say you're foolish, you're fools, you're horrible people, and are going to just take a pass. But hopefully we won't have to do that.
Marco Rubio
Republican Party
1. We need to determine very quickly, in a matter of days, whether this is doable in the next few weeks. If it's not, then we have other priorities to focus on.
Volodymyr Zelenskiy
Ukraine Government
1. There is nothing new to mention or discuss. Ukraine will not recognise the occupation of Crimea.
2. There is nothing to talk about. This violates our constitution. This is our territory, the territory of the people of Ukraine.
3. In Ukraine, we insist on an immediate, full and unconditional ceasefire.
Andrey Yermak
Ukraine Government
1. We will discuss ways to achieve a full and unconditional ceasefire as the first step toward a comprehensive settlement and a just and lasting peace.
2. The path to peace is not easy, but Ukraine has been and remains committed to peaceful efforts.
3. We arrived in London together with Defence Minister Rustem Umerov and Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga. Despite everything, we will work for peace.
Emmanuel Macron
Renaissance
1. Ukraine's territorial integrity and European aspirations are very strong requirements for Europeans.
Dmitry Peskov
Kremlin
1. As far as we understand, it has not yet been possible to reconcile positions on some issues, which is why this meeting has not taken place yet.
2. We continue our contacts with the Americans. We have no contacts with the Europeans; we have no contacts with the Ukrainians, either, although President [Vladimir] Putin remains open to such contacts in the interest of reconciliation.
US State Department
1. The only document shared in Paris was a list of potential options for discussion and feedback.
British Foreign Office
1. The Ukraine Peace Talks meeting with Foreign Ministers today is being postponed. Official-level talks will continue.
