(WND News Center)—The peace plan assembled by President Donald Trump to end the years-long war between Russian and Ukraine, a war that erupted during Joe Biden’s tenure in the White House, has been unveiled.
And it holds similarities to the peace plan Trump used to bring down the violence in the war against Israel that was launched by the terrorists in Hamas two years ago when they invaded the Middle East’s premiere democracy and slaughtered, often in horrific fashion, some 1,200 Israeli civilians, and kidnapped hundreds more.
Among its points are that Ukraine would cede some territory to Russia and be restricted from joining NATO. Russia, on the other hand, also would have to cede some territory it has demanded, and will agree not to invade neighboring countries, promising to adopt a law of “non-aggression.”
Neither combatant has adopted, or ruled out, the plan yet.
It includes statements confirming Ukraine’s sovereignty, a non-aggression agreement, meaning Russian will not invade neighbors further and NATO will not expand to include Ukraine.
Then there will be a “dialogue” between Russia and NATO, mediated by the United States, to resolve all security issues and create conditions for de-escalation.
Other points include that Ukraine will get reliable security guarantees, the Ukrainian armed forces will be capped at 600,000, Ukraine will include in its constitution its decision not to pursue NATO memberships.
Further, NATO will not station troops in Ukraine, but European fighter jets will be stationed in Poland.
Deal-killers would include if Ukraine invades Russia, or if Russia invades Ukraine.
It would allow Ukraine to be part of the European Union, and a “global package of measures” will be used to help rebuild the devastated cities there.
The U.S. will be involved in the rebuilding there where it involves “Ukraine’s gas infrastructure, including pipelines and storage facilities.”
It will allow Russia to be reintegrated into the global economy.
It plans, “$100 billion in frozen Russian assets will be invested in U.S.-led efforts to rebuild and invest in Ukraine; The U.S. will receive 50% of the profits from this venture. Europe will add $100 billion to increase the amount of investment available for Ukraine’s reconstruction. Frozen European funds will be unfrozen.”
Further, the U.S. and Russia ” agree to extend the validity of treaties on the non-proliferation and control of nuclear weapons, including the START I Treaty.” That is the last major U.S.-Russia arms control treaty and is due to expire in February.
And, “All Nazi ideology and activities must be rejected and prohibited.”
All prisoners will be exchanged, and “Once all parties agree to this memorandum, the ceasefire will take effect immediately after both sides retreat to agreed points to begin implementation of the agreement.”
The Hill reported the plan caught Ukraine’s supporters in Congress, “off guard.”
The publication said, “The plan was reportedly worked out by President Trump’s top envoy for peace negotiations, Steve Witkoff, and a top ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, Kirill Dmitriev, and discussed with only a few top senior Ukrainian officials.”
It explained, “Some lawmakers were left to learn the details of the 28-point peace plan largely from reporting in Axios, which broke the story, and the Financial Times, which followed up with details of the plan.”
Previously, Ukraine agreed to plans for a ceasefire but rejected demands that it cede any territory whatsoever.

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
