Trump Plan to Complete the War: The US wants Ukraine to hold elections by the end of the year - the media

According to the agency, Donald Trump and his special representative on Ukraine and Russia Kit Kelloga have already stated that they were working on a plan to conclude an agreement in the first few months of work of the new administration to put an end to the war in Ukraine. At the same time, they provided little details about their strategy. "In most democratic countries, elections are held during the war. I think it is important. I think it is good for democracy.

This is the charm of strong democracy: you have more than one potential candidate," Kellog said. Three sources reported to reporters that, although the US Presidential Plan is still under development, Kellogg and other White House officials have discussed the opportunity to "push" Ukraine in recent days in recent days in recent days.

Two more people told the agency that the Trump administration was discussing whether to insist on the initial cease to stop the fire before trying to conclude a long -term agreement. According to them, if Ukraine holds an election, the winner may be responsible for negotiations with the Russian Federation on a long -term agreement.

For his part, a former Western official in conversation with journalists expressed fear that the abolition of martial law could be mobilized to leave the army, and will push many men of mobilization age "running to the border". According to a former Western official, if Trump puts pressure on President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky on the election, the US will be able to "play" at Moscow's statements about the allegedly illegitimacy of power in Ukraine. "Trump, in my opinion, responds to . . .

a Russian reaction," the official said. At the same time, some former officials of the United States noted that they were skeptical of signing a peace agreement in the coming months and holding an election in 2025. They believe that the parties cannot reconcile how to start formal negotiations. On November 19, Volodymyr Zelenskyy presented in the Verkhovna Rada "Plan of Stands". One of the points is "unity", within which the President commented on the possibility of elections in Ukraine.

"Constitution and laws do not allow elections in wartime. No one in the world requires it. Ukraine first requires just peace, and then Ukrainians will hold fair elections," Zelensky said. We will remind, the head of the Nikolaev regional military administration Vitaliy Kim did not exclude elections in Ukraine this year. For her part, the People's Deputy of Ukraine Maryana Bezugla said that in 2025 Ukraine should not expect either the election of the new government or the truce with Russia.
