A flurry of diplomatic activity followed, leading to high-level meetings in Geneva and Abu Dhabi."
"As talks continue, a group of Atlantic Council experts gave an update on the situation this morning. While noting that no one has seen the now-19-point plan in full, there is a sense that this could be a turning point in the war. Daniel Fried, a former US ambassador to Poland and Assistant Secretary of State for Europe, summed up most of the reaction to the plan by saying, "The initial draft was a hot mess.""
The Trump administration delivered a 28-point proposal that included demands for Ukraine to cede territory and a ban on NATO membership, prompting controversy and criticism.
