Zelensky: Ukraine Ready to Sign Peace Agreement Next Week if Deal Reached

Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukraine is ready to sign a peace agreement with the US and Russia, should a deal be reached. He emphasized that the documents could be signed as early as next week. Zelensky stressed Ukraine's need for security guarantees that extend beyond Donald Trump's term in office, as well as a package of measures for the country's prosperity. He also accused Moscow of delaying peace efforts and described ultimatums as an inappropriate means of diplomacy. A Ukrainian delegation is already in the US for talks.
