The 28-point peace plan, how much territory Ukraine could lose and how much it

Implementing the US peace plan in its current form could result in Russia gaining a territory almost the size of Luxembourg without having to fight for it, according to calculations by the French agency AFP based on data from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).

According to the American initiative, which was shown to AFP, it is envisaged that the Ukrainian army will withdraw from the territories it still controls, which would bring Moscow a net victory of around 2,300 km², an area almost equal to Luxembourg (2,590 km²).

According to the plan, Ukraine will hand over approximately 5,000 km² in the Donetsk region and 45 km² in the Luhansk region.

In exchange, Russia will return to Ukraine nearly 2,000 km² in the Kharkiv region, 450 km² in the Dnipropetrovsk region, 300 km² in the Sumy region, and 20 km² in the Chernigov region.

In conclusion, the plan that the United States proposes would mean handing over 20% of Ukrainian territory, to get back less than 0.5 percent according to AFP. Otherwise, Ukraine has accepted a peace plan drawn up by the Americans, which is being widely criticized by the Europeans./zeri.ai
