Ukraine needs “real security guarantees” before any peace talks speak with Russia.

Ukrainian President Folodimir Zelinski said on Friday that his country wants “security guarantees” before any talks with Russia, as the Trump administration is pressing both countries to find a quick end for a three -year war.

Shortly before sitting with Vice President JD Vance to hold very expected talks at the Munich Security Conference, Zelenskyy said he would only agree to meet a person with Russian leader Vladimir Putin after negotiating a joint plan with US President Donald Trump.

The meeting, which lasted approximately 40 minutes between Vans and Zelinski, has not produced any major ads separated by leaving the most war in Europe since World War II. Zelenskyy made a sad statement about the gameplay.

“We want peace a lot,” said Zellinski. “But we need real security guarantees.”

For his part, Vans said that the Trump administration is committed to creating a permanent peace between Ukraine and Russia.

“Basically, the goal is, as President Trump explained, we want the war to end.” “We want the killings to stop. It is not the type of peace that will get Eastern Europe in a road conflict for only two years.”

Trump raised the years of fixed American support to Ukraine this week after a phone call to Putin, when he said that the two leaders are likely to meet soon to negotiate a peace agreement. Trump later Zelenskyy confirmed that, too, he will have a seat on the table.

“New Sharif in the city”

Before meeting with Zelinski, Vans did the European officials in freedom of expression and illegal immigration on the continent, warning that they are risking the loss of public support if they did not change the path quickly.

“The threat that I am more concerned about Europe is not Russia. It is not China. It is not any other external actor,” Vans said in a speech to the Munich Security Conference. “What worried is the threat from the inside – Europe’s decline in some of its most important basic values, and common values ​​with the United States of America.”

European officials warned: “If you are afraid of your voters, there is nothing that America can do for you.”
The speech was met and Trump pushed to quickly get out of Ukraine with great concern and uncertainty in the annual gathering of world leaders and national security officials.

The Vice President also warned European officials of illegal immigration, saying that the Europeans had not voted to open “flood gates to millions of unrestricted immigrants.”

He also indicated Thursday’s attack in Munich This has left more than 30 people, as the 24 -year -old Afghan suspect arrived in Germany as an asylum student in 2016.

NATO defense spending

Earlier on Friday, Vans met separately with German President Frank Walter Steinmere, Secretary -General of NATO Mark Root, and British Foreign Minister David Lami. He used the links to repeat the invitation of the Republican administration for NATO members to spend more on the defense.

Currently, 23 NATO member states hit 32 goals for the Western Military Alliance to spend two percent of GDP of defense.

But European leaders retreat until the descriptions of the White House of Reasonable Europe do not play in data. The continent has gathered to overcome Ukraine since Putin launched the invasion of February 2022. The United States has poured more than $ 66 billion in weapons and military assistance in Ukraine, while European allies and other allies sent $ 60 billion of weapons to Kiev.

“We have set severe sanctions, and we weaken the Russian economy significantly,” said Ursula von der Lin, head of the European Union Committee at notes at the conference. “We have broken one of the taboos after another and destroyed our dependence on Russian gas, which makes us permanently more flexible. We are about to do more.”

Chirinopil drone

Hours before Vans and Zelinski interviewed, a Russian drone with a high -separation warhead hit the protective cellar peel from Chernobyl nuclear power plant In the Kyiv region, the Ukrainian president said. Zelinski and the United Nations Atomic Agency said that the levels of radiation did not increase.

Zelinski told the correspondents that he believed the Chernobyl drone was “a very clear greeting from Putin and the Russian Federation to the security conference.”

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Friday denied Ukraine’s claims. Maria Zakharova spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that Munich organizers had not invited Russia for several years.

Trump was mysterious about his intentions specified for Ukraine and Russia – unlike noting that the deal would likely lead Ukraine to waive its lands that Russia has seized since the inclusion of Crimea in 2014.

Ukraine’s attempt to join NATO

Trump’s reflections left the Europeans in trouble, and they wonder how-or even if they can maintain security after the Second World War that NATO granted or fill the gap with billions of dollars from the security assistance provided by the Democracy Administration Biden to Ukraine since Russia has invaded.

Trump was very skeptical of this aid and is expected to reduce or limit it with the start of negotiations.

Trump and US Secretary of Defense Bet Higseth this week are undermining Ukraine’s hopes of becoming part of NATO, which the coalition said less than a year ago, “No return, including the Crimea.

“I don’t see any way a country can allow in Russia’s position … to join NATO,” Trump said on Thursday. “I don’t see that happening.”

Zelinski said, in his own statements during the conference, that the United States, including the Biden administration, has never seen Ukraine as a member of NATO.

Possible sanctions against Russia

Vans said, in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, that the United States will strike Moscow with sanctions and possibly military action if Putin does not agree to a peace agreement with Ukraine that guarantees Kiev’s long -term independence.

The warning that the military options “remain on the table” was amazing from the Trump administration, which has repeatedly confirmed the desire to end the war quickly.

The Vans team later retreated to the newspaper’s report, saying that it “did not calm down any threats.”

“He simply mentioned the fact that no one will make options away from President Trump with the start of these negotiations,” said Will Martin, Vans Communications Manager.

The Trump path, which also takes Europe.

French Deputy Foreign Minister Benjamin Haddad has described Europe as a turning point, with the Earth turning quickly under its feet, and said that Europe should break its dependence on the United States for its security. He warned that the delivery of victory to Russia in Ukraine could also have repercussions in Asia.

“I think we are not aware of enough to what extent our world changes. All of our competitors and our allies are busy with acceleration,” Haddad told France broadcaster on Thursday.
