President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Sunday (January 25, 2026) that a U.S. security guarantees document for Ukraine is “100% ready” after two days of talks involving representatives from Ukraine, the U.S., and Russia.
Speaking to journalists in Vilnius during a visit to Lithuania, Mr. Zelenskyy said Ukraine is waiting for its partners to set a signing date, after which the document would go to the U.S. Congress and Ukrainian parliament for ratification.
Zelenskyy says trilateral talks concluded constructively, more possible next week
Mr. Zelenskyy also emphasized Ukraine's push for European Union membership by 2027, calling it an “economic security guarantee.”
The Ukrainian leader described the talks in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, as likely the first trilateral format in “quite a long while” that included not only diplomats but military representatives from all three sides. The talks, which began on Friday (January 23) and continued on Saturday (January 24), were the latest aiming to end Russia's nearly four-year full-scale invasion.
