Russiahas again contacted theUS , after consideringthe 20-point peace plan presented by Ukraine\u00A0, as confirmed by the Kremlin this Friday.

The new contacts coincide with reports of a possible meeting between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, yet nothing is yet official.

Indeed, contacts have resumed at therequest of Vladimir Putin himself, as explained by Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov, who said that both had agreed to continue the dialogue.

Thus, while Mosku avoids talking publicly about the content of the peace plan, Zelenski says the document opens the door to a non-aggression treaty.

In this context, Axios has advanced that Trump could receive Zelensky at Florida headquarters. If so, the meeting would reinforce the diplomatic movements that are underway before the end of the year in order to reach a negotiated solution to the conflict.
