MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The European Union and the United States have agreed to provide security guarantees for Ukraine similar to NATO's Article 5, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said on Monday.
"This is a truly far-reaching, substantive agreement, the likes of which we have never had before: both Europeans and Americans are jointly prepared to provide Ukraine with security guarantees. President [Volodymyr] Zelensky referred to Article 5 of the NATO treaty, meaning we are talking about similar security guarantees for Ukraine," Merz said at a joint press conference with Zelenskyy.
The US "has politically, and potentially also legally, assumed the corresponding obligations," Merz added.
