Details: Peskov claimed that the Kremlin does not feel it is possible to assess Zelensky's plan based on media reports: "So far, there is a lot of conflicting and false information. We're quite cautious about this."

Background: 

  • On 22 September, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported on the start of his visit to the US, where he intends to present Ukraine’s Victory Plan to US President Joe Biden and other leaders of Ukraine’s partner states.
  • Zelenskyy is expected to visit the US and present his Victory Plan to President Joe Biden during a meeting in Washington DC on 26 September. Zelenskyy also hopes to explain the plan to presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
  • Zelenskyy will deliver his Victory Plan, which includes getting security guarantees, modern weapons and financial support for the country, during his visit to the US.
  • Zelenskyy further noted that the Victory Plan outlines decisions that are expected to be made between October and December 2024.
  • Zelenskyy said the thought that US President Joe Biden might not back the Victory Plan put forward by Ukraine was "horrible" because it would lead to a very long war with a huge number of casualties.
