NEW — A report from Axios lays out a proposed peace framework that includes U.S. recognition of Crimea as part of Russia as well as unofficial recognition of Russian control of nearly all areas occupied since the 2022 invasion. Ukraine would NOT be a part of NATO, but would receive security guarantees from European allies and would be allowed into the European Union. Ukraine will also receive compensation and assistance for rebuilding, but the source of this funding is unknown. JD Vance stated that the U.S. will withdraw from its mediation role if they do not receive a positive response. "We have presented a clear and fair proposal to both Russia and Ukraine."
