"Zelenskyy reiterated that no lasting resolution to the war can be reached without credible security guarantees for Ukraine. He stated that the signing of such guarantees must precede other agreements.

"I would very much like us to first sign the security guarantees and then sign other documents. This is not only about fairness, but also about trust," he said."

"There is talk from the American side about ending the war by the beginning of summer," Zelenskyy said, adding that no indications have been received suggesting the US might exit the negotiation process if that deadline is missed.

"It is important that the Americans remain engaged," he noted."
