US and Russia suggest ‘West Bank-style occupation of Ukraine’
The new proposal being considered to end the war in Ukraine
- A proposal for a "West Bank-style" occupation of Ukraine is being considered by the US and Russia as a potential way to end the ongoing conflict, according to the London Times.
- Under this plan, Russia would gain economic and military control over occupied Ukrainian territories, mirroring Israel's control over Palestinian territory.
- The suggestion emerged from discussions involving Donald Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, who is said to support the idea.
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has previously rejected ceding territory.
- The proposal is expected to be a key topic during an upcoming summit between Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska.
