Saying that "it was probably the most productive day we have had on this issue, maybe in the entirety of our engagement, but certainly in a very long time," Secretary of State Marco Rubio provided an update on the Ukraine peace talks in Geneva, Switzerland, adding that the sticking points on the Trump administration’s Russia-Ukraine peace proposal are “not insurmountable.” Ukraine has also said the delegations made good progress. It remains to be seen if Moscow would sign on to the terms being hammered out between Washington and Kyiv. Trump’s original 28-point peace plan had been widely considered favorable to Russia and was met with concern from European allies.

1. Zelenskyy says what he must

He knows that a total rejection of the unacceptable points won't gain him any help in terms of the US aiding them. It is not like we are supplying them with weapons any more (unless they are purchased by other countries with a 10% increase in cost - which is really sick if you ask me), but more importantly at this point is the intelligence and satellite data which they NEED in order to continue to fight back.

Zelenskyy knows he basically has to brown-nose trump, but he will not accept this 'peace plan' which is nothing more than total capitulation of Ukraine to Russia. It won't happen.
