Trump Peace Plan Could Go to a Vote in Ukraine, Zelensky Says
Newsweek ^ | Dec 26, 2025 | Jesus Mesa and Gabe Whisnant

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says he is prepared to call a national referendum on a peace plan developed with U.S. President Donald Trump, should Russia agree to a 60-day ceasefire. The potential plebiscite could determine the fate of a United States-mediated framework aimed at ending Russia’s nearly four-year invasion of Ukraine.

Speaking with Axios ahead of a planned Sunday meeting with Trump in Florida, Zelensky said the proposal is “about 90 percent ready” and includes codified agreements on security guarantees and economic reconstruction. But he acknowledged that key issues remain unresolved.

“If the plan demands a very difficult decision on that issue, I believe the best path forward will be to put the entire 20-point plan to a referendum,” Zelensky said. “It’s better to not have a referendum than have a referendum where people do not have the possibility to come and vote.”

How much money do those thieving politicians in the Verkhovna Rada want to pass it?

If Russia agrees to a ceasefire with no other agreement in place, Russia is losing and knows it can’t win. In that case Russia doesn’t care if Ukraine gets 2 months to build defensive lines, rebuild ammo and weapons supplies, prepare a counteroffensive, etc. It just wants out before things get worse.

Is "Z" trying to trap Trump by calling it "Trump's Peace Plan".

"Z" is clever like that.

Remember the EU said NO to everything if trump isn't involved.

It lunacy and laughable to vote on peace plan that Russia hasn’t and won’t agree to.
