WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 (Xinhua) — The U.S. State Department said Friday that American and Ukrainian negotiators agreed on a framework for future security arrangements during two days of meetings.
"Over the course of two days, Special Envoy for Peace Steven Witkoff and Jared Kushner held constructive discussions with Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Rustem Umerov and Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine General Andriy Gnatov, aimed at advancing an achievable path to a lasting and just peace in Ukraine," the department said in a statement.
"This was their sixth meeting in the past two weeks. Secretary Umerov reaffirmed that Ukraine's priority remains achieving a settlement that protects its independence and sovereignty, ensures the security of Ukrainians, and creates a stable foundation for a prosperous democratic future," the State Department noted.
Participants discussed the results of the recent meeting between the American and Russian sides, agreed on a framework for future security arrangements, and considered the necessary deterrence capabilities to ensure long-term peace.
The parties agreed that real progress in reaching any agreement depends on Russia's willingness to demonstrate a serious commitment to long-term peace, including steps to de-escalate and end the killings.
The interlocutors also separately discussed the “future prosperity agenda,” aimed at supporting Ukraine’s post-war reconstruction, joint Ukrainian-American economic initiatives, and long-term reconstruction projects.
The statement said discussions would continue on Saturday. –0–
