US to Continue to Seek Diplomatic Solution to Ukraine Conflict, Vance Says
Key statements by the US vice president in an interview with a US broadcaster:
▪ Russia is not misleading Trump about its desire to settle the Ukrainian conflict;
▪ Moscow has already made significant concessions for a settlement and is ready to show flexibility on a number of demands;
▪ The United States does not rule out the introduction of new sanctions against Russia, but may also reduce the pressure;
▪ The conflict in Ukraine will not end “overnight,” but the United States hopes that peace will be achieved within six months;
▪ Washington sees two main issues that need to be resolved - territorial concessions and security guarantees;
▪ Russia will participate in the discussion of security guarantees;
▪ The United States will not send American troops to Ukraine, but will continue to play an active role in the issue of security guarantees.
