Zelenskyy's office denies sharing info on alleged victory plan published by the Times

This was reported by Suspilne, citing its own sources in the Presidential Office.

According to sources in the Office of the President, journalists from The Times were not given access to the victory plan. The peace plan actually consists of five points. The first four are scheduled for implementation between October and December, while the fifth is set to be carried out after the war ends.

"The key aspect of the victory plan is its comprehensive nature. All the points are interconnected, and it's crucial to implement them together, as specified in the plan," the source stated.

It was noted that the details of the peace plan published in the article have been generalized by the authors.

Key points Zelenskyy's plan, according to the Times

The Times reported the information.

Zelenskyy's victory plan allegedly focuses on securing long-term guarantees of support for Ukraine from the West. These guarantees should be structured in a way that a new U.S. administration, even under a potential Donald Trump presidency, could not refuse them following the upcoming elections.

According to the outlet, citing its own sources, Zelenskyy's peace plan consists of four main points:

1. A request for Western security guarantees, akin to a mutual defense pact as part of NATO membership.
2. Support for Ukraine's continued offensive operations against Russia, particularly in the Kursk region, to create a territorial bargaining chip for future negotiations.
3. A request for the provision of “specific” modern weapons to bolster Ukraine's defenses.
4. A clause for international financial assistance aimed at rebuilding Ukraine's economy, which has been devastated by Russia's invasion.

Earlier, Zelenskyy said that he would present a plan for Ukraine's victory to current U.S. President Joe Biden, and also noted that he intended to present it to two presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. At the same time, Zelenskyy added that he would not disclose the details of the plan before meeting with Biden at the White House. He also said that the idea that U.S. leader Joe Biden would abandon the Victory Plan proposed by Ukraine is “terrible.”

The Kremlin's response

The Kremlin has stated that it will review Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's plan "if it appears in official sources." This was reported by Russian propaganda news agency TASS, citing Putin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov.

“We believe that it is impossible to do any analysis based on media reports. If any information is ever released by official sources, we will, of course, carefully study it,” the Kremlin spokesman said.

He added that there is currently “a lot of different, including contradictory, unreliable information.” 

“We are very cautious about this,” Peskov said.

• On the evening of Sunday, September 22, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived in the United States for a working visit, where he has already met with several American officials.
