US President Donald Trump is pursuing a distinct strategy regarding Ukraine negotiations, as discussions unfold in Berlin among European leaders, NATO, and the EU Commission. While US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner engage in talks, Trump communicates from Washington, stating that the US is closer to a resolution than ever before, despite the absence of a signature on the joint declaration. The focus remains on security guarantees and territorial issues, with Ukraine's NATO membership appearing unlikely. European plans include a multinational force to support Ukraine, contingent on an agreement with Russia, while the deployment of US troops is ruled out.
