BERLIN (AP) The U.S. has agreed to provide unspecified security guarantees to Ukraine as part of a peace deal to end Russia's nearly four-year war, and more talks are likely this weekend, U.S. officials said Monday following the latest discussions with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Berlin.
The officials said talks with President Donald Trumps envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, led to narrowing differences on security guarantees that Kyiv said must be provided, as well as Moscows demand that Ukraine concede land in the Donbas region in the countrys east.
Trump was expected to dial into a dinner Monday evening with negotiators and European leaders, and more talks are likely this weekend in Miami or elsewhere in the United States, according to the U.S. officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly by the White House.
The U.S. officials said the offer of security guarantees wont be on the table forever. They said the Trump administration plans to put forward the agreement on security guarantees for Senate approval, although they didnt specify whether it would be ratified like a treaty, which needs the chamber's two-thirds approval.
