The Russian Federation's plan to end the war against Ukraine may include several key points, including the creation of a "demilitarized zone" on Ukrainian territory and Ukraine's refusal to join NATO. Such a statement was made by the candidate for vice president of the USA from the Republican Party JD Vance.
Points of attention
- The creation of a demilitarized zone on the territory of Ukraine is a key point of the Trump team's plan.
- Ukraine's neutrality and refusal to join NATO as part of the peace agreement are also proposed.
- JD Vance stated the importance of negotiation and diplomacy to end the war.
Trump explained what his plan for ending the war would be
According to Vance, Donald Trump, in the event of his return to the White House, is not going to continue the policy of the current President Joe Biden's administration regarding aid to Ukraine.
I think it would look like this: Trump sits down and says to the Russians, to the Ukrainians, to the Europeans, "You guys have to figure out: What does a peaceful settlement look like? And it probably looks like the current line of demarcation between Russia and Ukraine, which becomes a demilitarized zone.

Vance also noted that the proposed demilitarized zone would be "heavily fortified" to protect Ukraine from a new invasion by the Russian Federation.
In addition, it is emphasized that within the framework of the peace plan, Ukraine will retain its independence in exchange for neutrality — this means that Ukraine will not join NATO or other "allied institutions."
According to a Trump associate, the current demarcation line will remain, which means that Ukraine will not regain the territory currently occupied by Russia.
Vance found a reason to complain about Ukraine
As the republican noted, the aggressor country of the Russian Federation "should not have invaded" Ukraine.
Despite this, he also added that "Ukrainians have a lot of problems with corruption", but did not explain how this is related to Russia's aggression.
According to Vance, the war between Ukraine and Russia cannot be viewed as a battle between good and evil, and the support of the United States of Ukraine as "a great humanitarian mission of our time."
There are many risks for us to stay there and try to encourage the Ukrainians to keep Crimea. The question is, how many American lives will it cost? And if the answer is more than zero, then I wash my hands… Donald Trump's policy is yes, be strong, but also be smart. Negotiate,” Vance said.
