Zelenskyy: US considers giving Ukraine security guarantees corresponding to NATO Article 5 – POLITICO

· POLITICO

BERLIN — U.S. envoys have signaled they are considering giving Ukraine guarantees for a future peace deal that correspond to the same levels of security as Article 5 in the NATO alliance, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Monday.

Article 5 is the bedrock of NATO as it guarantees collective security, stating that members should consider an attack on one member as if it were an attack against all of them.

“The U.S. is not offering us NATO membership … but it is important that the U.S. is considering Article-5-like guarantees. There is progress there. I saw details from the military and what I saw look pretty good. But it is only a first draft,” Zelenskyy said.
