Putin says U.S.–Ukraine draft points could form basis for future peace deal

Russian President Vladimir Putin said that certain elements of a draft peace framework discussed between the United States and Ukraine could become the basis for future agreements to end the conflict. At a press conference in Bishkek, he explained that Washington and Kyiv had broken a 28‑point proposal into four components during recent talks in Geneva, and that Moscow had been briefed on these developments. Putin noted that Russia generally agrees that these points could serve as a guide for future negotiations, but emphasized that no formal draft agreement has been produced yet—only a list of issues that all parties are examining.

He added that these topics had been discussed with American negotiators before his visit to the United States and were subsequently sent to Moscow for review. Putin stressed the importance of precise diplomatic language, saying that every word in a potential deal would be crucial. He also expressed willingness to provide written assurances to Western countries, such as a statement that “Russia will not attack Europe,” if that is required.

The Russian president cautioned against premature discussions about final versions of any agreement. Nevertheless, an American delegation is expected to arrive in Moscow next week for further talks, indicating ongoing efforts to explore a possible path toward peace. This development shows that diplomatic channels remain open and negotiations are progressing, albeit gradually.

The conflict in Ukraine has been a major concern for the international community, with many countries and organizations calling for a peaceful resolution. The fact that the United States, Ukraine and Russia are engaging in talks and exploring possible agreements is a significant step toward de‑escalation. As the situation unfolds, the international community will watch closely, hoping for a diplomatic resolution. The upcoming talks in Moscow are likely to be a crucial step, and their outcome will be closely monitored by all parties involved.
