The US adjusted the peace plan by removing the issue of Russian assets
The US excluded from the updated peace plan a clause on the use of frozen Russian assets. The adjustment was made to reduce political risks and find a more acceptable negotiation formula for all parties involved in discussing the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict.
In the updated version of the US peace plan for resolving the conflict in Ukraine, the clause regarding the use of frozen Russian assets to finance the country's reconstruction has been removed. The decision was driven by the need to reduce legal and political risks surrounding the mechanism for using the assets, as well as by the desire to adapt the document to international positions. The original version of the plan envisaged allocating about 100 billion dollars for Ukraine’s reconstruction, but further consultations in the US and Europe showed that implementing these provisions could create complications in international relations.
The adjustment to the plan resulted from discussions within the US administration and consultations with international partners. The issue of Russia’s assets became one of the most sensitive elements of the document, requiring a flexible approach. Removing this clause allowed contradictions between countries to be softened, especially among those concerned about the consequences of interfering with property regimes and financial stability. At the same time, the overall political goals of the document remain intact, and its key provisions continue to serve as a basis for negotiations.
Additional attention to the peace process was drawn by a phone call between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. The discussion involved the possibility of ending the conflict and the need to find solutions that would address the root causes of the confrontation. The Chinese side emphasized hopes for an early achievement of a just agreement that reflects Beijing’s position on balancing interests and preventing escalation.
Reports on the plan’s adjustment prompted reactions in European countries. For Europe’s financial system, the issue of frozen assets is complex and requires a separate approach. The removal of the contentious clause from the plan was perceived as a step that could reduce legal and political risks for EU states. Thus, the adjustment reflects the attempt to create a basis for a more stable negotiation process.
Overall, the updated document demonstrates an effort by the US administration to adapt the plan to the changing political and economic environment. Despite the adjustments, negotiations continue, and the parties seek acceptable wording on the key parameters of the future agreement. Further developments will depend on diplomatic contacts, including the roles of the US, Europe, Ukraine, China and Russia.
