'Draft not final yet; premature to claim agreement': Ukraine negotiator on Trump peace deal| Russia

Ukrainian negotiator Oleksandr Bevz explains the status of the U.S.-backed Geneva peace framework, stressing that there is no final deal yet and that key decisions rest with President Zelensky. He details how Ukraine pushed major changes to the original Trump plan, removed elements outside Ukraine’s security interests, and pressed for NATO‑style, legally binding security guarantees to make any agreement real and enforceable. Bevz urges caution about media speculation, highlights constructive talks with the U.S., and says the coming weeks could shape the war’s future if a ceasefire and detailed follow‑on agreements can be built on a workable framework.
