Washington Seeks Peace Deal Before Committing to Ukraine Security Guarantees

The US demands a peace agreement before committing to long-term security guarantees, offering 10-year NATO-style protections amid ongoing negotiations involving Kyiv, Moscow, and European partners.

  • This past week US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told European partners the United States is seeking a peace agreement before committing long-term security guarantees for Kyiv, according to Politico.
  • Given Ukraine's bitter experience with the Budapest Memorandum, which omitted conventional-defence commitments, the United States' past reluctance to make binding guarantees helps explain its cautious stance.
  • The United States presented a 28-point peace plan last week, limiting Ukraine's armed forces to 600,000 personnel and barring NATO troops and membership, while Kyiv received a separate NATO-style guarantees paper, Axios reported.
  • The White House has tasked Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and US Army Secretary Daniel P. Driscoll to finalize the peace-framework, with Witkoff expected to travel to Moscow if talks advance.
  • With deep disagreements among parties, Ukraine's push for NATO membership and European partners' warnings about lacking legal protections deepen divides over Donetsk Oblast and security guarantees.
