Juba oktoobris avalikustatud Ukraina sõja n-ö võiduplaanis märkis Ukraina liider, et kui sõda Venemaaga on läbi, võib Ukraina asendada USA väeüksused Euroopas. Lisaks pakkus ta ameeriklastele võimalust saada osa Ukraina loodusvaradest, nagu näiteks uraani ja liitiumi varud, teadis BBC. «Sellised strateegilised ressursid tugevdavad kas Venemaad või Ukrainat ja läänemaailma,» märkis Zelenskõi. Ukraina ootab vastutasuks julgeolekugarantiisid, mille keskmes on NATO liikmesus ja kõikehõlmav strateegiline heidutuspakett. BBC andmetel puudub aga NATOs endiselt üksmeel Ukraina alliansiga liitumise küsimuses.

Zelenskõi oleks nõus leppima NATO liikmeks saamisega kui see kehtiks esialgu ainult Kiievi kontrolli all olevale Ukraina territooriumile. Ukrainal on valus kogemus, kus ajalooliselt antud turvalisuse garantiid ei aidanud sõda vältida ja nii oodatakse esmajärjekorras siiski Venemaa langust.

“Unfortunately, you got a lot of American leaders who like to beat their chest and say; this [Ukraine] is the good guy and this [Russia] is the bad guy.”

To end the war, both Ukraine and Russia must make concessions, says U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio

According to him, any peace negotiations involve compromises from both sides.

"We will not preempt the negotiations. Such discussions are better held through diplomatic channels rather than in public forums. The final decisions will be made by the parties themselves — both Ukrainians and Russians," he stated.

Trump will tell Putin to end war in Ukraine - defence transition leader

A little more now from Robert Wilkie, the head Trump's transition team in the Pentagon, who appeared a little earlier on the Today programme.

He's been talking about Trump's approach to the war in Ukraine.

Wilkie says Trump will phone Russian President Vladimir Putin and tell him to stop the war

He adds that Trump will tell Ukraine's president Zelensky that he hasn’t done enough "by not calling to the colours the largest segment of your population", continuing that Zelenskyy has left out "males in the population who provide the muscle and the strength".

If Putin resists Trump's calls to end the war, Wilkie says, one of Trump's executive orders "will unleash American energy power".

"The flow of American liquified natural gas to Europe will begin," Wilkie says, "and the US presence on the world oil market will drive price of oil down – that will bankrupt the Russian economy. That is going to put an incredible stain on Putin’s wartime economy."
