+Trump and Kellogg are working on a plan to achieve a deal in the first months of the new administration, to reach an end to the deadliest conflict in Europe since World War Two.
So far, they have offered few details about their strategy for ending it.
“The Trump plan is still evolving, and no policy decisions have been made, but Kellogg and other White House officials have discussed in recent days pushing Ukraine to agree to elections as part of an initial truce with Russia, two people with knowledge of those conversations and a former U.S. official briefed about the election proposal said.”
If elections took place in Ukraine, the winner would be responsible for negotiating a longer-term pact with Moscow, the sources said.
How would this be greeted in Kiev? It’s unclear. Zelenskiy has said elections could be held this year if the fighting ends and strong security guarantees are in place for Ukraine.
