Quote from Zelenskyy: “Everything included in the [Victory] Plan is absolutely realistic for our partners. The world has this resource, the resource of strengthening, which allows us to move forward according to the Peace Formula. This is our goal, our task – to guarantee Ukraine a lasting peace and security.
This is only possible under international law and without any trade of sovereignty or territories, exactly as defined by the Peace Formula.
Ukraine needs a real, just peace and guaranteed protection from war. This is only possible from a strong position when both our people and our partners are truly united. This is what we are working for. I am grateful to everyone who is helping us and who is ready to make the next week historic in many ways (Zelenskyy refers to the next week’s meeting of Ukraine Defence Contact Group – ed.)”
Details: Zelenskyy said that the teams of Ukraine and the United States, as well as other partners, were working to prepare the meeting of Ukraine Defence Contact Group, and “meaningful decisions and, in general, meetings and negotiations [scheduled for] next week.”
Quote from Zelenskyy: “This week can be positive for our defence [capability] and our vision of how the war should end. We will do everything for this; we will do it 100%, and we will do it effectively.”
Background: On Saturday, the Financial Times reported that Ukraine and its Western allies were discussing a possible compromise that could see Kyiv gain NATO membership in exchange for a diplomatic solution to the issue of Russian-occupied territories in the future.
