MOSCOW (AA) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Thursday that Kyiv and Washington have reached an agreement on security guarantees for Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire with Russia, but it has yet to be signed.

Zelenskyy made the remarks at a press briefing following an hour-long meeting with US President Donald Trump at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

"When today we had a conversation with the American team ... and American president, and we all said that security guarantees are done, so the document is done, we need to sign," he said. "But it will come only after the war will stop."

While an agreement on security guarantees is complete, territorial issues had not yet been resolved, Zelenskyy said, urging Russia to compromise.

"We speak about one issue, which is the most difficult which has been not solved, and I think trilateral meetings will show each variant," Zelenskyy said.

Earlier, President Trump told attendees that a settlement to end the war in Ukraine “is coming very soon,” as he formally launched his proposed “Board of Peace” alongside other global leaders.
