Vance commented on the issue of guarantees for Ukraine

The United States and its allies are still working on security guarantees for Ukraine, but have not yet finalized them, said US Vice President Jay Dee Vance.

"Ukrainians want security guarantees, ... we are working on them, but we haven't worked them out yet," he said in an interview with Fox News.

According to Vance, the United States will not assume any obligations to guarantee the security of Ukraine until it understands what is required. The Vice President stressed that it is the Europeans who will have to "take the lion's share" in future guarantees.

"This is their continent. This is their safety," the vice president added.

A meeting between Vladimir Putin and Vladimir Zelensky could help in overcoming the impasse with the peaceful settlement of the conflict, Vance said.

Euractiv, citing sources, previously wrote that the national security advisers of the leaders of those countries that intend to participate in providing Ukraine with security guarantees intend to develop a plan for discussion next week.

The WSJ also indicated that the guarantees will include four components: military presence, air defense, weapons and control over the cessation of hostilities. The Russian Foreign Ministry stated that they oppose any scenario with the deployment of NATO troops on the Ukraine.
