He emphasized that Ukraine must be involved in any peace negotiations and requires security guarantees from the U.S. and its allies to protect against future attacks. Trump's special envoy, Keith Kellogg, arrived in Kyiv to engage with Ukrainian officials. He acknowledged the anniversary of Russia's invasion and stated that he would listen to Ukraine's concerns regarding security and sovereignty.
