"REPORTER: So when it comes to ceding land to Russia, is that still on the table, or has that changed? PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Well, they're talking about going land both ways and trying to clean up a border. You know, you can't go through the middle of a house. You can't get through the middle of the highway. So they're trying to work something. It's a complicated process. Doesn't go that quickly."
"REPORTER: There were a lot of Republicans who felt that the first plan, first 28-point plan was too favorable to Russia. Have you changed your mind? PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Well, that was just a map, all that was is a map. That was not a plan, it was a concept. And from there, they're taking each one of the 28 points and then you get down to 22 points. A lot of them were solved, and actually very favorably solved. So we'll see how we'll see what happens."
President Donald Trump defended a leaked 28-point peace proposal by calling it a "concept" and saying it was "just a map" rather than a formal plan. He stated negotiators were addressing individual points, reducing 28 points to 22, and that many items were resolved favorably. Trump described reciprocal territorial discussions and efforts to "clean up a border," called the process complicated, and said the United States is coordinating security guarantees with Europe. The proposal was described as authored by the U.S. with input from the Russian side and previous and ongoing input from Ukraine, and it drew Republican criticism.
