The US wants clarity on where Ukraine stands on the plan by Christmas. Reuters reports Zelenskyy warning that if Putin rejects proposals, the US would apply sanctions pressure and provide more weapons.

Resolves YES if, by 2025-12-25 23:59 UTC, (a) the Kremlin publishes an official statement OR (b) Putin publicly states that Russia “accepts” or “agrees to” the U.S.-backed peace plan/framework that is publicly identified by the U.S. government (White House / State Dept.) as its Ukraine peace proposal in effect at that time.

“Acceptance” must be explicit (e.g., “Russia accepts/agrees to the U.S. peace plan/framework”), not merely openness to talks or saying it is a “basis for negotiations.”

Primary verification: official Kremlin publication/transcript and confirmation by at least two major outlets (e.g., Reuters + AP/BBC/FT/WSJ).

Resolves NO otherwise.
