Zelensky details talks with Trump envoys on winter aid, territories, security guarantees

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky held talks in Kyiv with US President Donald Trump's envoys and European security advisors, focusing on winter support, air defense, and security guarantees. Three rounds of "very substantive" negotiations took place on September 6. Zelensky said Kyiv expects a "winter package" including Patriot systems, energy support, and US liquefied natural gas if the war continues into winter. He confirmed territorial issues were discussed but said such complex questions must be resolved at the leaders' level. The talks also covered security guarantees, economic commitments, and reconstruction. US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner arrived by train earlier that day, with Kushner stating Trump's determination to end the war.
