We are working on post-war plan for Ukraine, - Kushner
The United States is working closely with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his team on a plan for Ukraine's postwar development.
U.S. President's Special Representative Jared Kushner stated this following talks with Zelenskyy in Ireland, according to Censor.NET.
Cooperation on a Plan for Ukraine's Postwar Reconstruction
"I know that we are working very closely with President Zelenskyy and his team on a postwar plan for Ukraine. Ukraine’s potential is incredible. When you think about what Ukraine has managed to achieve while defending itself in this war—innovation, ingenuity, strength, brilliant craftsmanship—it has been so impressive. And I think that carrying that same tenacity into the postwar period—to rebuild the economy and society on that foundation—will be something truly exciting. And the plans we’re working on are truly incredible," said Kushner.
Development of Security Guarantees for Ukraine
The U.S. President's Special Representative also noted that discussions are underway regarding postwar security for Ukraine, as well as for the entire region, "to ensure that what is happening after this war will never happen again."
"So we’ve been working on this very thoroughly with President Zelenskyy. And General Grinkevich (Supreme Allied Commander Europe, NATO—Ed.) has truly been leading these efforts. And I think we’re continuing to make significant progress. So we’ll be having more discussions on this topic. And, I’ll say it again, we’ll simply continue to coordinate closely. And I hope we’ll see even more progress soon," Kushner added.
