President Trump pledged that the U.S. would help guarantee Ukraine’s security in any future peace agreement. The specifics remain unspecified. European allies also joined the summit and urged a ceasefire. Zelenskiy welcomed the guarantee and said it would be formalized “within the next week to 10 days,” along with a $90 billion purchase of U.S. weapons. Trump is arranging potential trilateral talks with Putin and Zelenskiy, possibly in Hungary, although Russia has ruled out NATO troop involvement.
