US offered Ukraine 15 years of security guarantees, Zelenskyy says – POLITICO

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the current draft peace framework includes 15 years of security guarantees from the U.S., with Kyiv pushing for that to be extended for up to 50 years.

At a meeting in Florida on Sunday, Zelenskyy said U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed strong security guarantees for Kyiv, with both leaders expressing optimism that they were on the precipice of a peace deal to end the war in Ukraine.

“Yesterday we confirmed this with [Trump], that we will have strong security guarantees from the United States. Indeed, now it is not forever. In the documents it is for 15 years with the possibility of extending these security guarantees,” Zelenskyy told reporters via WhatsApp chat on Monday.
