Results of meeting in Paris: EU ready to provide Ukraine with security guarantees
The European Union does not support a ceasefire without a clearly defined peace agreement, given the negative experience of the Minsk agreements.
This was announced by an EU official in a commentary to Suspilne after a meeting of European leaders in Paris, Censor.NET reports.
According to him, Europe shares US President Donald Trump' s approach to achieving "peace through strength". At the same time, the EU is ready to provide Ukraine with security guarantees, but the terms of such guarantees will be discussed individually, depending on the level of support from the United States.
"We are ready to raise our defence budgets, both individually and within the EU, to better share the burden with the United States," the EU official said.
Emergency summit in Paris
As a reminder, Macron has called a meeting of European leaders to discuss the situation in Ukraine. The meeting will be attended by the leaders of France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, Italy, Spain and Denmark, representing the Baltic and Scandinavian countries, as well as NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
Macron spoke to Trump before the "Ukrainian" summit in Paris.
He also had a conversation with Zelenskyy after the summit.
