The five key points of the plan, written in April 2021, have been revealed.

The decisions of the President of the United States of America Donald Trump regarding Ukraine are dictated by the implementation of the plan of the White House Special Representative for Kyiv and Moscow Keith Kellogg. The document was submitted three years ago, and it seems that it is on its points that Trump is now going.

“Trump’s tactic to bring Ukraine to heel and force the country to negotiate on peace follows a careful plan written and published in black and white last summer by none other than the president’s Kyiv envoy,” writes The Telegraph.

Journalists analyzed several points of the plan and cited them in their article.

Time to Stop the Killing

What the plan says

The point is that the United States plans to achieve a ceasefire through negotiations. Military assistance and strengthening of Ukraine's defense will continue, but in return, Kiev must take part in the peace process with Moscow.

What is actually happening

As journalists noted, everything happens as Kellogg said. Trump began peace talks with Putin and then called for Zelensky's dialogue.

Military aid continued as Ukraine and the United States prepared to sign a deal on rare earths. But after the quarrel in the Oval Office, Trump accused Zelensky of the fact that the Ukrainian guarantor was not ready to end the war. After that, Washington stopped military assistance to Kyiv and the exchange of intelligence.

No Nato Membership

What the plan says

The plan said that in order to force Putin to take part in the negotiations, President Biden and NATO leaders should postpone Ukraine's accession to the Alliance for a long period in exchange for a serious peace agreement with security guarantees.

What is actually happening

During a NATO meeting in Brussels, US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegset said that the United States does not see Kiev in the Alliance.

"The United States does not believe that NATO membership for Ukraine is a realistic result of a negotiated settlement," the Pentagon chief added.

Ukraine Sovereignty

What the plan says

According to the document, Ukraine will not be forced to give up its territories. But Kyiv should agree to the return of the territories only through diplomacy, and breakthroughs will not happen before Putin leaves the presidency.

What is actually happening

The situation is consistent with Kellogg's words. American officials say one by one that Ukraine should cede territory to Moscow in exchange for peace.

Russian Sanctions

What the plan says

The United States and its allies pledge to fully lift sanctions on Russia and normalize relations with Moscow only after the Kremlin signs a peace agreement that Kiev agrees to.

What is actually happening

Journalists write that the United States is preparing a plan to lift sanctions against Russia immediately after the cessation of hostilities. According to Reuters, Washington is already considering how to do this at a fast pace.

Long-Term Security

What the plan says

The United States could launch a deal that meets the interests of both Ukraine and the United States itself. A long-term security architecture should be established to ensure the defense of the Ukrainian state.

What is actually happening

As many believe, this section is a promise to arm Ukraine "to the teeth" if Moscow fails to reach an agreement with Kiev and Washington, or fails to fulfill the terms of the deal. Also in the section there is a list of security guarantees that the United States has not yet offered to Ukraine.
