WASHINGTON, Aug. 19 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump has instructed his team to develop a framework of security guarantees that will help ensure lasting peace in Ukraine, White House press secretary Caroline Leavitt said on Tuesday.
Preparations for a possible meeting between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky are in full swing, and both sides have expressed their readiness for talks, she said at a press briefing.
In an interview with Fox News earlier on Tuesday, Trump said the United States would not send troops into Ukraine, but indicated the United States could help in other ways, including by providing air support.
He once again categorically ruled out the possibility of Ukraine joining NATO.
While security guarantees remain a key demand of Ukraine, the Russian Foreign Ministry said it rejected any scenario that would involve the deployment of NATO troops on Ukrainian territory, warning that such a move could trigger an uncontrolled escalation with unpredictable consequences.
On Monday, D. Trump met at the White House with the visiting president of Ukraine and seven European leaders to discuss ending the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The talks followed a meeting between US and Russian leaders in the US state of Alaska on Friday where progress was reported but no agreement was reached. –0–
