Paris: Ukraine talks with the USA were “excellent”

For hours, Europeans, Ukrainians and US representatives in Paris advise on a possible end to the Ukraine War. In the end, France is satisfied – and makes an announcement.

After the Paris talks, France is satisfied with a possible end of the Russian war of attack in Ukraine. Élysée circles then spoke of an “excellent exchange”. Ukraine, the United States and the Europeans shared the same goal, namely to achieve a solid peace as quickly as possible and to be able to guarantee the respect for Ukraine’s fundamental rights. According to French information, it was the first time that Ukrainians, Europeans and Americans came together for discussions about peace in Ukraine.

Since that morning, US representatives, Ukraine and consultants from the French, British and German government have exchanged their own in various formats in the Parisian Élysée Palace. France’s President Emmanuel Macron phoned after the talks with the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj. Macron had spoken to Selenskyj with Selenskyj before his meeting with the special sentence of US President Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Selenskyj thanked Telegram Macron for his efforts in the evening.

According to French information, all important points came on the table at the various conversations, which should be part of a peace agreement. The exchange was very strategic. As early as the coming week, Europeans, Ukrainians and US representatives will come together in the same format, it said from Paris.

From Germany, the external and security policy advisor to the managing federal government, Jens Plötner, was involved in some of the talks. The head of the Kiev Presidential Administration, Andrij Jermak, and Foreign Minister Andrij Sybiha came from Ukraine.

The numerous rounds of talks in Paris were pursued with excitement because representatives of very different approaches for a possible end of the Ukraine war met. US President Trump wants a rapid end of the war and a rapprochement between the United States and Russia. Trump and Witkoff emphasized after contacts with Kremlin boss Vladimir Putin that he wanted to get peace. They are rather inclined to put Ukraine under pressure.

Like Great Britain and other European countries, France, on the other hand, follows the approach of making Ukraine as strong as possible before negotiations and supporting them militarily.
