The United States is prepared to support European partners in implementing security guarantees for Ukraine by providing assistance in the air.
U.S. President Donald Trump said this in a phone interview with Fox News, Ukrinform reports.
“When it comes to security, they [Europeans] are willing to put people on the ground. We are ready to help them, especially, probably by air. Because nobody has the kind of stuff that we have,” Trump said.
He added that if a peace deal is reached, “for a very extended period of time, I don’t think there will be a problem.”
“There will be some form of security. But there can’t be NATO, because that is not something that will ever happen,” Trump stressed.
He said that American troops would not be deployed in Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said earlier that Ukraine was already working on the specific framework of security guarantees following talks in Washington with the U.S. president and European leaders.
