On November 24, Valeriy Klychok summed up the day's key events, focusing on peace negotiations concerning Ukraine. The Ukrainian delegation has returned from talks, and President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that the US is no longer pressing for a peace deal to be signed by November 27. A US Senator confirmed that deadlines may be more flexible. Kremlin representatives, including Putin's aide Yury Ushakov, see the European plan's provisions as unconstructive.
The US and Ukraine issued a joint statement highlighting progress and constructive talks, as well as plans to continue joint proposals soon. Final decisions regarding the framework document are to be made by Presidents Trump and Zelensky. European leaders comment cautiously on the prospects, emphasizing the need for further consultations and for Russia's involvement. Meanwhile, China officially supports peace efforts but stresses the issue of Taiwan as critical for future cooperation.
An official Ukrainian MFA spokesperson stated that US proposals are being discussed in close coordination with Europe, with progress on some points, but several questions remain for the leaders to resolve. Zelensky's visit to the US is not scheduled for this week, and real deadlines for signing the document could shift by several months.
President Zelensky named Russia's demands for recognition of annexed territories as a key obstacle. Ukraine is working with partners to ensure real security and the release of all prisoners and abducted children.
The front line remains stable in Ukraine’s favor near Kupiansk, and reports about North Korean troops in Zaporizhzhia are refuted by official sources.
In the Ukrainian Parliament, there is discussion about forming a broad coalition and a government of national unity to address the political crisis. MP Dmytro Razumkov called for a technocratic cabinet composed of professionals capable of effectively responding to challenges.
In summary, the negotiation process is ongoing with no final agreement as of now; efforts are focused on refining the document and maintaining international support for Ukraine.
