The President held talks with Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, and Mark Rutte. The parties will strengthen security documents to deter Russian aggression.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a conversation with the American team - Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, as well as Senator Lindsey Graham and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. There is an agreement to strengthen security guarantees, and the Ukrainian team has been instructed to promptly update the documents, UNN reports.
I spoke with the American team today. Other signals are needed, and silence on Easter could be precisely the signal that tells everyone: diplomacy can be successful. Ukraine is doing everything to support work for peace. Today, we spoke in detail with Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, joined by Lindsey Graham and Mark Rutte. We talked about how to strengthen diplomacy, what steps are possible, as well as about security guarantees and the involvement of Europeans. It was a positive conversation. I want to thank you, Steve, Jared, Lindsey, Mark. We agreed to strengthen security guarantees, and I have already instructed our team to promptly update the documents so that security guarantees for Ukraine are strong, and so that the prospect of post-war reconstruction is real, and so that everything is workable.
According to the President, everything must be relevant, because "we see what changes are happening in the world, how much can change in an instant."
This applies to alliances and security challenges. Ukraine must receive reliable security, and this is the main task. I am grateful that the representatives of the President of the United States hear us and are ready to work together to find the right compromises, the right steps, the right solutions. The key is how and what we all talk about with Russia. And in how the documents are prepared, including security guarantees. So that Ukrainians clearly understand how partners will react in case of a repeat of Russian aggression and what, in fact, will deter Russia from aggression.
Zelenskyy once again emphasized that "common strong positions are needed, and our Ukrainian contribution to this strength certainly exists."
We are working with America. Thank you to everyone who helps us. I expect the teams to work substantively in the near future so that we can all feel progress. The trilateral format is important, the leadership format - all this is necessary.
