Western officials sought to lower expectations for the plan to end the war that President Volodymyr Zelenskiy is presenting in New York this week, saying they don’t see it ushering in a breakthrough to the conflict with Russia. One person familiar with Zelenskiy’s conversations with foreign leaders, who asked not to be identified discussing private deliberations, said there were no real surprises in president’s so-called “victory plan” and it wasn’t a major game-changer. Another official described it as a “wish list.” |
