Zelenskiy offers to drop NATO bid for security guarantees after meeting Trump's envoys.

  • Ukrainian President Zelenskiy offered to forgo NATO membership in exchange for binding Western security guarantees.
  • Zelenskiy held five hours of talks with US envoys, including Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, in Berlin.
  • Ukraine seeks legally binding security guarantees from the US, Europe, Canada, and Japan.
  • This potential shift aligns with Russia's demand for Ukraine to renounce NATO ambitions and remain neutral.
  • Negotiations are ongoing, with further discussions scheduled after the initial talks hosted by German Chancellor Merz.
