US offers security guarantees to Kyiv, says Russia Not opposed to Ukraine joining the EU
The US has agreed to provide unspecified security guarantees to Ukraine as part of a peace deal to end the four-year war, and many talks were held Monday by President Ukrodymyr Zelenskyy in Berlin.
The authorities said that they spoke with the US President Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, led to a reduction in security assurances when the KYIV allows the Donbas country in the east of the Donbas in the East of the country.
Trump is expected to call for dinner tonight with the leaders of the talks with European leaders, with many speeches possible this weekend in the United States, according to American officials, who were not authorized to comment on the White man.
US officials say the provision of security guarantees will not be on the table “forever.” They said the Trump administration plans to put the deal ahead of the Senate approval process, although it is not clear whether a third deal, which requires the approval of three chambers, will be approved.
In a statement, European leaders in Berlin said they and the US were committed to working together to provide “Strong Security Guarantees” including a “Ukraine-led force” backed by the US
They said the Force’s work would include “operating inside Ukraine” and helping to rebuild Ukraine’s armed forces, secure its skies and support safe seas. They said that the Ukrainian army should remain in the peacetime area of 800,000.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz called it “a far-reaching, far-reaching and unprecedented agreement, which means that both Europe and we are ready together to do this.”
Questions remain
Questions over Ukraine’s military security and the fate of the slaughterhouses have become major obstacles to talks. Zelenskyy stressed that any Western security guarantees would need to be legally binding and supported by the US Congress.
Meanwhile, Russia has said it will not accept any troops from NATO countries based on Ukrainian soil.
Zelenskyy on Monday called the speeches “big” and noted that the difference remains in the field magazine.
Zelenskyy expressed readiness to dismantle Ukraine’s bid to join NATO forces if the US and other Western nations give assurances to Kyiv. But Ukraine’s preference remains NATO membership as the best security guarantee to deter Russian aggression.
Ukraine has continued to reject the US PUSH for a clean-up zone in Russia. Russian President Vladimir Putin wants Ukraine to withdraw its forces from the part of Donetsk region still under control as a key condition for peace.
US officials on Monday said there is 90 percent of the 90-point Peace Plan, and that Russia has indicated it is open to Ukraine joining the European Union, something it previously did not say.
Putin has singled out Ukraine’s joining Nato, however, as a major threat to Moscow’s security and a reason to launch a full-scale offensive in February 2022.
Asked if the talks could last longer than Christmas, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said he was trying to predict a possible time frame for a peace deal to be ‘a thankless task.’
The Canadian government is investing another $200 million in the military regime in Ukraine through NATO, as well as $35 million in non-lethal aid, Foreign Minister Anita Anand announced at a meeting in Brussels.
“I can only speak from the Russian side, because it is President Putin,” said Peskov. “He is open to silence, to great silence and to great decisions. He is not completely open to any tactics that aim to focus time.”
Putin has rejected plans to attack any European allies.
Putin ‘drags’ speeches: MI6 Chief
Elsewhere in Europe, the head of the MI6 Spy Agency said on Monday, that Putin is putting extensive efforts to end Russia’s war in Ukraine, and is testing Thresics. “
Blaise Metereweli said that Putin is “dragging the negotiations” by stopping the conflict, and remains determined to “conquer Ukraine and harass NATO members.” “
“Now we are working in the space between peace and war,” said Metroweli, who is the most threatened in the world, in his public address when he will be the head of the Foreign Penalties Department two months ago.
Metroweli accused Moscow for sponsoring cyberattacks on other sensitive countries’ issues, the emergence of drones around European airports, arson campaigns, campaigns on our oil, above and below the waves. “
“Exports are a feature, not a bug, in this Russian way of engaging with other countries, and we must be tough on this to continue until Putin is forced to change his calculus,” he said.
Russia has always denied allegations that it could carry out drone incidents or cyberattacks that affect western countries. It also denied any plans to attack NATO, which has been providing arms, intelligence and other aid to Ukraine since Moscow launched the full-scale offensive.
In a warning to British opponents, the Metroweli said the Mi6 would ‘sharpen our edge’ and take calculated risks. ” Uthe i-ejensi kufanele ithinte “kwimvelo yethu yomlando, i-soe, ibhekisa kwi-Clandestine Executive Operation Executive Executive Executive Executive Executive Executive Executive Executive Executive Executive Executive Executive puntilotiland leticondzayo leticondzayo leticondzako letitsatsa eMpini Yesibili.
“We will not be fooled by the tactics of our opponents. But we must want to drive them out,” he said.
In a separate speech, the head of the British army, Chief Chief Marshal Richard Knighton, said that Putin’s goal is to “challenge, limit, divide and ultimately destroy NATO.”
Knightin said at the Royal United Services Institute think-tank The war in Ukraine shows that Putin “threatens all of NATO, including the UK”
He argued that Britain needed both a stronger military and more religious infrastructure to meet the emerging threat.
“Our aim must be to avoid war, but the price of maintaining peace is rising.”
