The EU representative reportedly presented a European version of the counter-proposal. According to the EUs counter-proposal, the number of Ukrainian troops would be capped at 800,000, higher than the US-proposed 600,000. Ukraine also pledged not to use military means to reclaim occupied sovereign territories, and that territorial exchange negotiations would begin from the current military contact line. The EU further proposed that Ukraine would receive a US security guarantee similar to Article 5 of NATO, and that NATO would agree not to permanently station NATO-commanded troops in Ukraine during peacetime, with NATO aircraft only stationed in Poland. Whether Ukraine would join NATO would depend on the consensus of NATO member states, but currently, there is no such consensus. Furthermore, Ukraine will hold elections as soon as possible after the signing of a peace agreement.On November 24th, German Chancellor Merz stated during the G20 summit in Johannesburg, South Africa on the 23rd that he had proposed a simplified version of the "28-point" plan put forward by the United States to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Merz stated that this plan is "below the level of a complete solution" and aims to find workable points of consensus in complex negotiations. He indicated that the "28-point" plan is too complex to reach an agreement in such a short time, and he hopes that the "simplified plan" will at least attempt to find a point of entry for reaching a consensus. Merz pointed out that given the current differences, reaching an agreement by the 27th, as demanded by US President Trump, is quite difficult.Ukrainian President Zelensky: Its a good thing to have dialogue with US representatives. There are signs that US President Trumps team "heard us."
