Ukraine has delivered an updated 20-point peace proposal to the United States intended to bring an end to the ongoing conflict with Russia. According to a Ukrainian official, the revision introduces "some new ideas" especially concerning territorial arrangements and governance of the strategically significant Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. The proposal reflects Kyiv's continued efforts to seek diplomatic solutions despite the protracted fighting.

The Zaporizhzhia region remains a critical front line, where Ukrainian artillery units remain actively engaged against Russian forces. The new peace plan is expected to address complex questions about control over vital infrastructure and contested territories.

Ukraine's initiative signals a potential shift in negotiations, as it looks to balance security concerns with political realities on the ground. Observers note that any agreement involving the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant will require careful international oversight given its importance and risks.

Further details on the revised plan have yet to be publicly disclosed, but it underscores Ukraine's willingness to propose constructive frameworks for conflict resolution while maintaining defense capabilities in contested areas.
