00:00Ukraine's allies have agreed to provide multi-layered international defense guarantees
00:06at a key summit in Paris on Tuesday. Leaders from Europe and Canada met with U.S. representatives
00:12as well as top EU and NATO officials and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
00:18Allies will participate in U.S.-led monitoring and verification of any ceasefire, support the
00:24long-term provision of armaments for Ukraine's defense, and work toward binding commitments
00:28to support Ukraine in the case of any future attack by Russia.
00:33Deutschland will continue to be involved in politically, financially and also militarily.
00:39It may be that after a warstill, we will be involved in the NATO area in the United States.
00:48The size of the supporting forces was not made public, and many of the plan's details remain unclear.
00:54We heard President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and some of the other people here talking about land options that will be the most critical issue,
01:04and we're going to be continuing on with those discussions, and hopefully we'll be able to meet or come up with certain compromises with regard to that.
01:15The biggest question that we need to do is the territorial issue. We have discussed some ideas that can help.
01:23If the teams can't solve some questions, we can take this question to the level of leaders.
01:30Zelenskyy said progress was made in the talks, although commitments need to be ratified by each country so that they can be put in place after any settlement.
