Kyiv's Rejection of Ukraine-Russia Peace Deals

Multiple countries and organizations, including China, Brazil, the Vatican, and African leaders, have proposed peace plans and mediation efforts for the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his advisers have expressed reluctance to consider these proposals, as they refuse to compromise on Ukraine's territory and sovereignty. Russia's President Vladimir Putin has shown no signs of abandoning his goal of dominating Ukraine. While some experts argue for the need for dialogue and diplomacy, others caution that a ceasefire without resolving substantive disagreements may only lead to a temporary pause in the conflict.
