President Donald Trump has revealed that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has not yet reviewed the revised peace plan designed to resolve the ongoing conflict with Russia. This comes after numerous discussions between U.S. and Ukrainian representatives held in Miami.

Speaking to journalists at the Kennedy Center on Sunday, Trump expressed his disappointment, stating, “I’m a bit let down that President Zelenskyy hasn’t gone through the proposal, as of just a few hours ago. His team is in favor, but he hasn’t come around yet.”

Trump further commented, “When you think about it, Russia would probably prefer to have the entire country, but they seem okay with the plan. However, I’m not certain Zelenskyy shares the same sentiment.”

On Saturday, Zelenskyy mentioned having a “lengthy and substantive” phone conversation with U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner. During the call, they extensively discussed strategies to terminate Russia’s aggression and prevent future invasions by Moscow.

The Ukrainian leader said he was waiting for members of his negotiating team to brief him in person on the latest round of talks.

Rustem Umerov, the head of the Ukrainian delegation and secretary of Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council, said Monday that he and Ukraine’s military chief of general staff, General Andriy Hnatov, would brief Zelenskyy on the latest developments, including the takeaways from Witkoff and Kushner’s five-hour meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Putin arrived in New Delhi last week for a state visit with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and gave an interview to the India Today news channel, where he said the negotiations with the Americans were long but productive.

“Sometimes we said, yes, we can discuss this, but with that one we cannot agree,” said Putin, according to a transcript of the conversation released by the Kremlin.

The Russian leader stuck to his maximalist demands in the interview, arguing his war will only end when his country takes Ukraine’s eastern Donbas or Ukrainian troops withdraw.

Zelenskyy is set to meet with European leaders in London Monday to discuss the U.S.-led peace plan. His arrival comes amid a new wave of Russian drone and missile barrages that have targeted Ukraine’s civilian and energy infrastructure.

Zelenskyy said in the last week alone, Russia launched more than 1,600 drones, roughly 1,200 guided aerial bombs, and nearly 70 missiles of various types against Ukraine.
