Top Headlines (November 28, 2025)
Political Turmoil & Corruption Scandal
Zelenskyy Aide Resigns: Andriy Yermak, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s powerful chief of staff and key peace negotiator, submitted his resignation after anti-corruption agents raided his home.
Wider Investigation: The raid is part of Ukraine’s largest corruption scandal in years, centered on an alleged $100 million kickback scheme within the state nuclear energy company, Energoatom.
International Reaction: European officials have welcomed the anti-corruption agencies’ actions as a sign of institutional strength, though analysts suggest the timing is challenging for Kyiv, as it could be used by US critics of aid to Ukraine.
Peace Plan Diplomacy & Deadlock
US-Backed Proposal: A US-backed 28-point plan to end the war has sparked intense debate. Ukraine and the US have signaled progress in talks, with some officials saying only “minor details” remain.
Territorial Disputes: A key sticking point is the issue of territory. Reports indicate the plan may involve ceding some occupied land to Russia, which Ukraine firmly rejects, stating its land is not for sale.
Putin’s Stance: Russian President Vladimir Putin has said the US plan could be a “basis” for future agreements but reiterated that the war will only stop if Ukrainian troops withdraw from territories Russia claims to have annexed.
Envoy to Moscow: US special envoy Steve Witkoff is scheduled to travel to Moscow next week for further talks with Russian officials.
European Concerns: European leaders, many of whom were reportedly cut out of the initial US talks, are wary of the plan, with concerns it might “reward the aggressor” and create a “bad deal” for Ukraine.
On the Ground
Russian Attacks: Russia launched a “massive” overnight assault using drones and missiles, causing destruction and power outages and resulting in several civilian deaths.
Ukrainian Strikes: Ukraine’s military confirmed it struck a Russian oil refinery and an airfield in Russian-occupied Crimea in overnight operations.
