Zelensky: Security guarantees are what unite the vast majority—Europe, America, and all our global partners need a shared understanding of how to ensure that Putin can never deceive the world again, and that Russia can no longer bring death to other nations—from Ukraine and Europe to Syria, the Middle East, and Africa.

Right now, we are talking with all our partners about security guarantees and concrete forms of support—actions, assistance, decisions, and messages.
