Last week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Trump in Florida, with the Ukrainian leader pitching a 20-point peace plan that would see the U.S. provide security guarantees to Kyiv and the country’s eastern Donbas region turned into a free economic zone.
On Tuesday, around 27 leaders, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte as well as the alliance’s top military officer, Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, will gather in the French capital in the so-called Coalition of the Willing format.
Paris and London, co-leading the Coalition of the Willing, want to discuss and find common ground on five points, according to the Elysée official: How a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine would be monitored; support for Ukraine’s military; a multinational reassurance force in Ukraine once the war ends; commitments to support Kyiv if a ceasefire is violated by Moscow; and long-term defense cooperation deals with Ukraine.
Chiefs of defense also discussed security guarantees for Ukraine on Monday.
