President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky spoke about the progress achieved in military matters during the Geneva negotiations. According to him, Ukrainian forces understand the mechanisms for implementing the agreements, but political will is necessary. Military Agreements on Track "They have, in principle, agreed on almost everything. Monitoring (ceasefire — ed. note) will definitely involve the American side,” Zelensky said, emphasizing that the priority is security guarantees for Ukraine. Ukrainian representatives have clear directives for every aspect of the negotiations. Territorial Issues Remain Stalled However, Zelensky noted that there has been no progress on territorial issues, particularly regarding Donbas and the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP). Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, Rustem Umerov, described the mood after the three-way meeting as "good,” with the next step being consensus with the Russian side on key decisions before presenting them to national leaders.
