"The gathering of the Western Volunteer Coalition for Ukraine ended before talks in Washington tomorrow. I stressed that in order for peace to come, it is essential to emphasize the aggressor alternatively than the victim of aggression" - wrote the head of the Ministry of abroad Affairs Radosław Sikorski on the X website.
Meanwhile, on Sunday, US president Donald Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, announced crucial advancement in negotiations with Russia regarding future peace in Ukraine.
According to Witkoff, Vladimir Putin agreed to include a safeguard clause in the agreement Ukraine is protected in accordance with Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, which obliges NATO members to defend each other.
As Witkoff explained, this proposal constitutes a compromise to circumvent Russian request that Ukraine should never become a NATO member.
Ukraine is to get safety guarantees
– Putin made it clear that Ukraine's accession to NATO was a red line. That is why we talked about the anticipation of offering Ukraine safety guarantees, which act like Article 5, without actual NATO membership – he explained in an interview with CNN Witkoff.
Let us add that the president of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenski will not fly to meet Donald Trump alone – a group of European leaders will join him.
These include European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen, Finnish president Sauli Niinistö, French president Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
Their common presence is to item European support for Ukraine and to strengthen global force to resolve the conflict caused by Russia.
