For the first time, the United States declared its readiness to deploy troops in Ukraine as a security guarantee
Peace in Ukraine is on the horizon for the first time since the start of the full-scale war, and the key signal of the latest negotiations was the US position on security guarantees. This was stated by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk after a teleconference of European leaders
According to Tusk, the leaders of Ukraine, the United States, the European Union and Canada are taking part in the first stage of serious talks. He emphasised that the events of the last few days give reason to hope for the end of the war, although it is still far from certain
The Prime Minister called the declared readiness of the United States to participate in security guarantees for Ukraine after peace is achieved a key result of the talks. In particular, this refers to the possible presence of American troops on the Ukrainian-Russian border or on the contact line.
Tusk stressed that such clear declarations from the US were made for the first time during the war. He added that it is important to assess how consistent the partners on both sides of the Atlantic will be, but these statements give grounds to talk about a real chance of ending the war
