00:00After two days of talks in Berlin, European leaders agreed to extensive security guarantees

00:07for Ukraine, committing to coming to Kyiv's defense in a future attack by Russia.

00:13In a statement released on Monday night, Europe and the U.S. committed to work together to

00:17provide the guarantees, including a European-led armed force supported by the U.S.

00:23It is a substantial agreement that we have not yet had, that both the European and the U.S.

00:36are together together. President Zelensky has taken on Article 5 of the NATO-Vertrags the same

00:44security guarantees for Ukraine. That is, in my opinion, a really big progress.

00:51Other than a multinational force on Ukrainian soil, guarantees also include a U.S.-led mechanism

01:07to monitor and verify an eventual ceasefire and Ukraine's accession to the European Union.

01:12Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said territories were the most difficult issue of the negotiations,

01:24due to the vast disagreements with Russia, which is intent on taking as much land as possible.

01:30The diplomatic breakthrough in Berlin comes days before EU leaders are set together in a crucial

01:48summit in Brussels to decide how to raise €90 billion to finance Ukraine's budgetary and military needs for 2026 and 2027.
