US security guarantees document 100% ready, Zelensky says

A US document on security guarantees for Ukraine is completely ready and Kyiv is waiting for a time and place for it to be signed, Reuters writes, citing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Ukraine’s president said weekend talks with Russia in Abu Dhabi made some progress.

“For us, security guarantees are first and foremost guarantees of security from the United States. The document is 100% ready, and we are waiting for our partners to confirm the date and place when we will sign it,” Zelensky told a news conference during a visit to Vilnius.

“The document will then be sent for ratification to the U.S. Congress and the Ukrainian parliament.”

On Friday and Saturday, Ukrainian and Russian negotiators held their first trilateral meeting including US mediators in Abu Dhabi.
