KYIV (Reuters) - Ukraine is making progress in intensive talks to formalise legally binding security guarantees with the United States and European allies, a key part of its bid to end the war with Russia, First Deputy Foreign Minister Sergiy Kyslytsya said.
A bilateral agreement with the United States remains vital, and U.S. President Donald Trump's recent commitment to participate in Ukraine's defence was a "breakthrough moment", Kyslytsya told Reuters in an interview.
