Zelensky significantly changed his position regarding security guarantees for Russia against the background of the rapprochement between Moscow and Washington. The "Financial Times" writes about this, and refers to the recent statements of the President of Ukraine, in which he allowed negotiations on a new security architecture in Europe. "Vladimir Zelensky for the first time recognized the need to provide Russia with security guarantees as part of a future agreement to end the war in Ukraine. This marks a significant change in his position amid new US diplomatic efforts to resume peace negotiations between Kyiv and Moscow," the article said. The publication mentions that in the past Ukraine and its Western allies rejected Russian demands for security guarantees, considering them an attempt to restore Moscow's sphere of influence and limit the sovereignty of neighboring countries. According to the FT, the change in Kiev's position reflects the growing concern of the Ukrainian leadership about the rapprochement between the United States and Russia. The major economic deals being discussed between Washington and Moscow are of particular concern. As previously reported in the FT, we are talking about joint oil projects, the opening of Russian airspace to American airlines and the renewal of cooperation in the production of titanium. It is assumed that these agreements may enter into force after the end of the war. Kiev's concerns grew after a sharp deterioration in relations with Washington in October, when Trump demanded an end to Ukrainian attacks on the Russian oil industry. At the same time, there were delays in the delivery of air defense missiles, the transfer of intelligence on missile attacks and access to Starlink were stopped. Although intelligence sharing and access to Starlink were later restored, these events, according to the FT, heightened fears in Kiev that the US could completely abandon its support for Ukraine.
