The publication notes that Ukraine considers US security guarantees to be a key element of any settlement that would end the war.
Earlier, the Financial Times reported that the Trump administration had made it clear to Ukraine that US security guarantees depended on Kyiv's agreement to a peace deal, which would likely require it to cede Donbas to Russia.
But a source who spoke to Reuters said that the United States is not telling Ukraine what should be in the peace agreement and that the assumption that Washington is trying to force Ukraine to make territorial concessions to Russia is incorrect.
What preceded this?
- Politico reported that the US considers its security guarantees to be more important than those of Europe.
- President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the document on security guarantees from the US is 100% ready.
