This week the US will discuss how to end Russia’s war against Ukraine. However, the security guarantees will be entrusted to Europe, stated Mike Waltz, the US National Security Advisor in an interview with NBC.

The adviser announced that this week the US Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, Vice President, and US Special Envoy to Europe will discuss the details of how to end this war. In turn, the President of the United States is ready to act to engage all parties in the negotiations.

“This means getting both sides at the negotiating table. What he [Trump] has said is that Russia"s economy is not doing well. He is prepared to taxes, to tariffs, to sanctions. We need to get all sides to the table and put an end to this war. And this has come up in conversations with President Xi, with Prime Minister Modi, with leaders across the Middle East. Everyone is ready to help President Trump end this war. Let’s get all sides to the table to negotiate.

Trump is ready to bring all these issues to the table this week, including the future of American aid to Ukraine: “We need to recoup those costs, and that is going to be a partnership with the Ukrainians in terms of their rare earth, their natural resources, their oil and gas, and on buying ours. Those conversations are going to happen this week. And if there’s an underlying principle here is that the Europeans have to own this conflict going forward. President Trump is going to end it. And then, in terms of security guarantees, it is squarely going to be with the Europeans”, - Waltz summarized.
