Bloomberg reports, based on informed sources, that Europe has a counterproposal ready to President Donald Trump's peace plan for Ukraine.

The document calls for Russia's frozen assets to be used for the reconstruction of Ukraine and compensation for the damages suffered by Kiev.

The European proposal will be presented to the United States during talks in Geneva, where negotiations are taking place between the EU, the US and Ukraine.

Ukraine: European requirements in counter-proposal

The EU counter-proposal calls for Russia's frozen assets to be used for the reconstruction of Ukraine and to compensate for the damages suffered by Kiev following the Russian invasion.

Europe also demands a security guarantee from the Americans that reflects the mutual defense clause in NATO's Article 5.

The EU rejects Moscow's demands for the transfer of unoccupied territory in eastern Ukraine.

Summit in Geneva to discuss the plan

Talks between the EU, the US and Ukraine are taking place in Geneva regarding the American proposal for peace in Ukraine.

The U.S. delegation meets with the Ukrainian delegation at the U.S. Permanent Mission in Geneva. At the table are Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of the Army Daniel Driscoll, and envoy Steve Witkoff. Across from them is the Ukrainian delegation led by Andriy Yermak.

Among the first to arrive was Rubio, who, according to some US senators, described the proposal as “a Russian wish list.” This was denied by the State Department.

Meloni's position:"Let's work on Trump's proposal"

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said in Johannesburg that the issue is not to work on a complete counterproposal, according to ANSA.

"There are many points on which we can agree, it makes sense to work on the existing proposal," Meloni said, responding to a question about the possibility of a European counter-proposal.

Italy sent its diplomatic advisor to Geneva to participate in the talks.
