The Ukrainian army should be strong and be able to protect the country in the future. However, the Armed Forces requires the support of a foreign contingent - instructors from the EU troops and peacekeepers. "If Zelensky feels that the war is over and Russia will not attack again, it will go to the agreement," he added.
Matthew Viter did not rule out that the peace agreement may contain Ukraine's obligations to protect the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate) and Russian -speaking citizens. The end of the war will have to seek both sides, whatever it may be, the American official said. "The good news is that US President Donald Trump continues to bow to peace talks and stop murder," he summed up.
It should be noted that the Russian side regularly requires Ukraine to guarantee the recognition of the status of the Russian language and the protection of the Orthodox churches. Moscow has repeatedly stated the discrimination of the Russian language in Ukraine. Officially, the Ukrainian authorities did not comment on Matthew Vitker's message about his readiness to stop the war on the current front line.
