Russia rejects peace proposal being floated around by Trump team to end war in Ukraine ‘We are not happy, of course, with the proposals made by members of the Trump team’ “Judging from numerous leaks and Donald Trump’s interview with Time magazine on December 12, their idea is to suspend hostilities along the line of contact and transfer responsibility for confrontation with Russia to the Europeans,” Lavrov said at a news conference on Monday, December 30, according to New York Post. Lavrov added, “We are not happy, of course, with the proposals made by members of the Trump team to postpone Ukraine’s admission to NATO for 20 years and to station British and European peacekeeping forces in Ukraine.” In his Time interview, Trump said he would not like to discuss his official plan for Ukraine as it would become “a worthless plan” if made public.
