"we think they've put forward a viable strategy and plan," linda thomas-greenfield said at a news conference.

reuters reported that late on the 17th, us state department spokesman matthew miller said that blinken agreed with linda thomas-greenfield's assessment of the "victory plan", but refused to disclose more information. "i think i should let president zelensky talk about the details. this is ultimately his plan." miller said.

according to qatar's al jazeera tv on august 28, ukrainian president zelensky said at a press conference that he would submit a "victory plan" to us president biden, democratic presidential candidate harris, and republican presidential candidate trump during his visit to new york to attend the un general assembly in september. he said: "the main goal of this plan is to force russia to end the war, and i very much hope that the result will be fair to ukraine." according to ukraine's "rbc.ua" news website, zelensky posted on the social media platform x on september 16 local time that more than 90% of ukraine's "victory plan" to defeat russia has been completed and will be presented to its western allies next week.

russia has responded to the "victory plan" recently proposed by ukraine. according to a report by ria novosti on august 28, russian president's press secretary peskov said on the same day that kiev's plan to "defeat russia" would not prevent russia from continuing to implement special military operations. according to a report by russia's regnum news agency, denisov, an expert at the russian federal government finance university, said that zelensky's position means that the ukrainian army must successfully counter the russian army's offensive in all directions and continue to advance in the kursk direction. denisov said that zelensky's remarks were not new, and he had repeated this many times at different times during the "special military operation." under the current situation, this statement can be regarded as a "public opinion game."
