Europe, Kiev Reportedly Demand Security Guarantees From US, Chance for Ukraine to Join NATO

Kiev's European allies demand that the US leave the door open for Ukraine's membership in NATO even if it is not practical now, a US newspaper reported, citing sources.

These issues were reportedly discussed at a Saturday meeting between:
UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy
Ukrainian and European representatives
US Vice President JD Vance

During the talks, Ukraine and Europe told Vance that the first step should be an immediate ceasefire, and Ukraine should not cede territory in exchange for a truce, a source told a US online media outlet.

Moscow has repeatedly stated that Ukraine's NATO membership would violate Russia's security and demanded its neutral status.

Conditions set by Russia to settle the Ukrainian conflict remain unchanged, and Russia aims to eliminate the root causes of the crisis, Putin has recently reiterated.
