Washington, 21 November 2025 (dpa/MIA) - US President Donald Trump has suggested a Thursday deadline as "appropriate" for the Ukrainian government to respond to the latest peace plan for Ukraine.

Speaking on Fox News radio on Friday, Trump said: "I've had a lot of deadlines, but if things are working, well, you tend to extend the deadlines. But Thursday is, we think, an appropriate time."

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was presented with the plan on Thursday. He said earlier Friday that it left Ukraine facing "a very tough choice: either a loss of dignity or the risk of losing a key partner," referring to the United States.

Zelensky said that Kiev would work closely with Washington to seek solutions and explore "alternatives."
