European security advisers join US envoys in Kyiv for talks on peace terms and security guarantees

National security advisers from Britain, Germany, and France arrived in Kyiv on September 6 for talks, Reuters reported, citing a source familiar with the situation. The visit coincides with the presence of US special envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff in the Ukrainian capital. The US envoys met with President Volodymyr Zelensky after arriving from Moscow, where they held about three hours of talks with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin on September 5. Ukrainian officials said Kyiv has prepared its own proposals for negotiations and demands security guarantees. The simultaneous visits by US and European representatives occur amid efforts to restart peace talks. Witkoff and Kushner plan two negotiation sessions in Kyiv, with Ukrainian officials and European partners, potentially preparing a joint position on peace terms and security guarantees.
