Zelenskyy considers temporary ceasefire with NATO security guarantees for Ukraine

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has indicated he may consider a temporary ceasefire that allows Russian control over occupied territories, provided NATO offers security guarantees for the rest of Ukraine. This marks a shift in his previous stance on territorial integrity. Zelenskyy emphasized the need for NATO protection to prevent future Russian aggression. He suggested that the status of occupied areas could be resolved diplomatically while ensuring Ukraine's internationally recognized borders remain intact. His comments come amid speculation about a potential change in U.S. policy under President-elect Donald Trump. Zelenskyy expressed a willingness to collaborate with Trump to secure support for Ukraine's defense.
