In brief
Jared Kushner said the US is facilitating direct engagement between Moscow and European partners while preparing an agenda for further trilateral talks on ending the war in Ukraine.
US representatives remain in close contact with Russia, Ukraine and European partners following earlier trilateral meetings and subsequent discussions with Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Jared Kushner said, according to UNIAN.
Kushner said new ideas emerging from those discussions were still being developed. Some could lead to a breakthrough, while others could become proposals to bridge remaining differences. UNIAN's report did not specify their substance or the date and location of the next round of talks.
According to Kushner, Donald Trump considers reliable security guarantees for Ukraine and practical postwar security arrangements necessary for a lasting peace. Kushner also said NATO would remain the principal pillar of European security, supplemented by mechanisms for military cooperation, communication, conflict prevention and mutual de-escalation.
Any final agreement would require approval from the relevant parties, Kushner said. He added that Trump would support only arrangements that strengthened the security of Ukraine and Europe and reduced the likelihood of future conflicts.
