Details
Secretary Rubio and I just had a productive conversation with national security advisers Jonathan Powell from Great Britain, Emmanuel Bonne from France, Günter Sauter from Germany, and Rustem Umerov to discuss the next steps in the European peace process.
He added that the parties focused on how to practically advance negotiations on behalf of US President Donald Trump, including strengthening security guarantees and developing effective conflict resolution mechanisms to help end the war and ensure it does not resume.
We also dedicated time to a package of measures for Ukraine's prosperity – how to continue to define, refine, and advance these concepts so that Ukraine can be successful, resilient, and truly prosper after the war ends. Many additional details were discussed, and we will continue this important work and coordination in the new year.
