Trump believes Russia is fine with his plan for Ukraine

U.S. President Donald Trump believes that Russia is fine with Washington's proposed plan for a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Ukraine.

"[As for] Russia, I believe [it is] fine with it [the proposal]," Trump said talking to reporters.

In November, Washington proposed a 28-point plan for settling the conflict in Ukraine. The document caused discontent among Kiev and its European partners, who tried to significantly revise it. On November 23, the U.S. and Ukraine held consultations in Geneva.

Later, the U.S. leader said that the initial plan for a peaceful settlement had been revised to take the positions of Moscow and Kiev into account, leaving only a few contentious issues. He also noted that the number of points had been reduced to 22.
