Paris: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Thursday called on allies at a summit in Paris to send a group of representatives to Ukraine to jointly develop a clear and unified security plan.
According to Anadolu Agency, speaking at a high-level meeting on Ukraine's defense hosted by France, Zelenskyy said a 'coalition of willing and capable partners' is already working together politically and militarily, highlighting the need to address 'very specific questions.'
Zelenskyy expressed gratitude to France, the United Kingdom, and all involved for their desire to assist in building long-term security. He emphasized the necessity of clarifying concrete details about a future deployment in Ukraine.
The Ukrainian leader posed several questions regarding the coalition's involvement, including which countries will be involved on the ground, in the sky, and at sea in Ukraine. He sought clarity on the deployment locations, the number and structure of the forces, their response procedures in case of threat, and the timing of the deployment.
Zelenskyy proposed inviting a small group of representatives from partner countries to Ukraine to jointly draft a detailed plan. He stressed the importance of having a single, clear plan that all parties agree on and are ready to implement, based on previously discussed options and proposals.
