Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that he is willing to cooperate with the United States on the peace plan that that country has drafted regarding the war in Ukraine. Tá sé ráite ag Uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodymyr Zelensky go bhfuil sé sásta comhoibriú leis na Stáit Aontaithe maidir leis an bplean síochána atá dréachtaithe ag an tír sin faoin gcogadh san Úcráin. What is needed now, he said, is beneficial work, which must be undertaken honestly and enthusiastically. Obair thairbheach a theastaíonn anois, arsa sé, a gcaithfear tabhairt fúithi go hionraic agus go beo. That's what Zelensky had to say about the American plan, however, he did not give any details and it seems from his measured and concise speech that he is really against it. Sin an méid a bhí le rá ag Zelensky faoi phlean na Meiriceánach, áfach, níor thug sé aon sonraí agus dealraíonn sé ón gcaint thomhaiste ghonta a rinne sé go bhfuil col aige leis i ndáiríre. US Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll was in Kiev yesterday, where he discussed the plan first with representatives of the Ukrainian Government and then with Zelensky himself. Bhí Rúnaí Arm na Stát Aontaithe Dan Driscoll i gCív inné, áit ar phléigh sé an plean le hionadaithe ó Rialtas na hÚcráine i dtosach agus le Zelensky féin ina dhiaidh sin. A US government spokesman claimed that one of those representatives, Rustem Umerov, accepted the plan after proposing several amendments. Mhaígh urlabhraí ó Rialtas na Stát Aontaithe gur ghlac duine de na hiondaithe sin, Rustem Umerov, gur ghac sé leis an bplean tar éis dó roinnt leasuithe a mholadh. According to the plan, which has not been published but has been seen by the Reuters news agency, Ukraine would cede every inch of the Donbas region in the east of the country to Russia and the number of soldiers in the Ukrainian Army would be halved - in exchange for promises about Ukraine's security. De réir an phlean, nach bhfuil foilsithe ach atá feicthe ag an ngníomhaireacht nuachta Reuters, ghéillfeadh an Úcráin gach orlach de réigiún Donbas in oirthear na tíre don Rúis agus laghdófaí faoina leath an líon saighdiúirí atá in Arm na hÚcráine – é sin mar mhalairt ar ghealltanais faoi shlándáil na hÚcráine. The plan also states that Russia, Ukraine and the European Union would sign a non-aggression treaty; that no soldiers from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization would be sent to Ukraine; and that the number of member states in that organization would not be increased. Deirtear sa phlean freisin go síneodh an Rúis, an Úcráin agus an tAontas Eorpach conradh neamhionsaithe; nach gcuirfí chun na hÚcráine aon saighdiúirí ó Eagraíocht Chonradh an Atlantaigh Thuaidh; agus nach gcuirfí le líon na mballstát san eagraíocht sin. In addition, the international sanctions imposed on Russia since that country invaded Ukraine in early 2022 would be gradually lifted. Ina cheann sin, chuirfí deireadh de réir a chéile leis na smachtbhannaí idirnáisiúnta atá curtha ar an Rúis ó rinne an tír sin ionradh ar an Úcráin i dtús 2022. Russia would be invited back to participate in the G8 forum of countries and the United States would enter into a wide range of economic agreements with Russia regarding energy, natural resources, infrastructure, artificial intelligence, data centers and rare earth minerals in the Arctic region. Thabharfaí cuireadh don Rúis a bheith rannpháirteach an athuair i bhfóram thíortha an G8 agus dhéanfadh na Stáit Aontaithe raon leathan socruithe eacnamaíochta leis an Rúis maidir le fuinneamh, acmhainní nádúrtha, infreastruchtúr, intleacht shaorga, ionaid bhunachar sonraí agus mianraí tearcithreacha i réigiún an Artaigh. It is not known whether the Americans have discussed the plan with other European countries yet, but yesterday the European Union Foreign Ministers indicated that they were not overly impressed with what they had heard about it. Ní fios ar phléigh na Meiriceánaigh an plean le tíortha eile san Eoraip fós ach inné thug Airí Gnóthaí Eachtracha an Aontais Eorpaigh le tuiscint nach raibh siad róthógtha lena raibh cloiste acu ina leith.
