Trump gives Ukraine deadline to agree to peace plan

U.S. President Trump indicated he was giving Ukraine until next Thursday to agree to a peace proposal from the U.S. to end the war with Russia.

Trump was asked during an appearance on the “Brian Kilmeade Show” on Fox News Radio about reports that the administration was giving Ukraine a deadline to sign off on the proposal or lose U.S. support, The Hill reported.

“So is next Thursday the deadline, that you gave a loose deadline for Ukraine?” Kilmeade asked.

“Well, we have, you know, I’ve had a lot of deadlines, but if things are working well, you tend to extend the deadlines,” Trump responded. “But Thursday is, we think, an appropriate time.”
