ExclusiveZelenskyy Addresses the Nation Over Trump's New 28-Point Peace Plan

Ukraine is at one of its most difficult moments in its history. The Eastern European country's leader Volodymyr Zelensky said on Friday, in his address to the nation, after the United States presented a 28-point proposal to end the war with Russia. Now is one of the most difficult moments in our history. Now the pressure on Ukraine is one of the most difficult, he said. Now Ukraine may find itself facing a very difficult choice. Either the loss of dignity or the risk of losing a key partner. Either the difficult 28 points or an extremely difficult winter, the most difficult, and further risks. Officials from the Trump administration presented Zelensky the proposal in Kyiv on Thursday, with provisions of ceding land to Russia, capping its military size, and getting security guarantees from the United States. It's unclear if Ukraine will accept the proposal. A senior Ukrainian official close to Zelensky told the Financial Times that the Ukrainian president was speaking frankly to his people and seeking a mandate from them to guide his next decisions. According to the Washington Post, the White House is applying heavy pressure on Ukraine to sign on to its new peace proposal by Thanksgiving or lose U.S. support.
