Zelenskyy and EU Leaders Set Out Five Conditions for Russia Peace

The plan calls for an immediate ceasefire, security guarantees and $300 billion in frozen Russian assets to stay locked until Ukraine is compensated.

  • On June 7, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Ukraine issued a joint statement outlining five conditions for peace, including an immediate ceasefire, negotiations at the current line of contact, and security guarantees, mirroring an open letter from President Volodymyr Zelensky.
