Ukraine-US security guarantees document ready for finalization at highest level: Zelensky

KYIV - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Thursday that a document on US security guarantees for Ukraine is being prepared for finalization at the highest level.

"The bilateral document on security guarantees for Ukraine is now essentially ready for finalization at the highest level with the President of the United States," Zelensky said on X after a conversation with Ukraine's top peace negotiator Rustem Umerov on the results of the peace talks in France.

Zelensky said the Ukrainian delegation discussed documents related to recovery and economic development with the US and European partners, as well as the basic framework for ending the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

The US side will engage with Russia, and Ukraine expects feedback, he added.

The Ukrainian negotiation team on Wednesday held talks with national security advisors from several European countries, White House special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, US President Donald Trump's son-in-law. The discussions focused on ways to end the conflict and provide security guarantees for Ukraine.
