A U.S. document on security guarantees for Ukraine is completely ready and Kyiv is waiting for a time and place for it to be signed, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Sunday, indicating that weekend talks with Russia in Abu Dhabi made some progress.
"For us, security guarantees are first and foremost guarantees of security from the United States. The document is 100% ready, and we are waiting for our partners to confirm the date and place when we will sign it," Zelenskyy told a news conference during a visit to Vilnius, the Lithuanian capital.
"The document will then be sent for ratification to the U.S. Congress and the Ukrainian parliament," he said.
"(In Abu Dhabi) the 20-point (U.S.) plan and problematic issues are being discussed. There were many problematic issues, but now there are fewer," Zelenskyy said.
He said Moscow wants to do everything possible to get Ukraine to abandon eastern regions Moscow has been unable to capture since its full-scale invasion that triggered the war. But Kyiv, he said, had not budged from its position that Ukraine's territorial integrity must be upheld.
