Several Republican members of Congress have expressed severe criticism towards the White House and the peace plan proposed by President Donald Trump for Ukraine, considering that it favors Russia. Senator Roger Wicker stated that he is skeptical about the effectiveness of this 28-point plan, and concerns have intensified after it was revealed that Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, discussed a possible ceasefire agreement with a Putin advisor. Critics like Representative Don Bacon have emphasized that Witkoff is not trustworthy. Although Trump's party remains largely united, these criticisms indicate an increased political vulnerability for the president, especially in the context of the majority support of Americans for Ukraine. Analysts suggest that these reactions reflect broader discontent within the party, particularly in light of the upcoming midterm elections in 2026.
