Steve Witkoff, serving as Donald Trump’s special envoy to Russia, revealed in an interview with Fox News that the U.S. and European allies may consider offering Ukraine security guarantees similar to NATO’s Article 5 commitment, but outside of NATO itself. This comes after Trump’s recent summit with Vladimir Putin, which many viewed as stagnant on negotiations. Putin reiterated his opposition to Ukraine’s NATO membership, while Trump is now pressing for a swift peace deal involving security assurances for Kyiv. European leaders are set to meet with Trump in Washington alongside President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Monday to strengthen Ukraine’s position during these crucial discussions.
