Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he plans to speak with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Sunday as Canada and other Western security advisers gather in Geneva to evaluate a new U.S.-led peace plan aimed at advancing efforts to end the war in Ukraine. The 28-point proposal, recently shared with European and Western allies, has been described as a constructive starting point for renewed diplomatic discussions focused on Ukraine’s sovereignty, regional security, and long-term stability.
Carney noted that European and Western leaders reached a unified stance on the U.S. plan during consultations over the weekend. According to him, their shared position has already been relayed to Washington, reducing the need for individual outreach to former U.S. President Donald Trump. Speaking on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Johannesburg, Carney emphasized that coordination is being handled at the adviser level to ensure consistency and efficiency.
He highlighted that national security advisers from participating nations are leading the follow-up discussions in Geneva, where they will address the details of the U.S. peace framework and compile feedback to be delivered to U.S. officials. Carney added that his upcoming conversation with Zelenskiy is intended to “close the loop” on key points and ensure Kyiv remains fully aligned with the ongoing diplomatic process.
Regarding the proposal itself, Carney expressed support for the opening principle affirming Ukraine as a sovereign nation, calling it “a good start” to any meaningful peace effort. He also acknowledged that numerous additional issues will be reviewed during the Geneva talks, including security guarantees, territorial concerns, and broader geopolitical implications.
The renewed push for a coordinated Western response reflects growing international interest in finding a viable path toward ending the conflict. As discussions progress, officials hope the consolidated feedback will help refine the U.S. plan and reinforce a unified approach to supporting Ukraine’s defense, independence, and long-term peace prospects.
