Ukraine has no ready list of countries-guarantors of security - Zelensky

Ukraine does not yet have a list of countries ready to "engage 100%" for it as security guarantees, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in an interview with Ukrainian journalists shown on Tuesday as part of the all-Ukrainian telethon

"Different countries are ready to guarantee different things. So far, we have not received a list of countries that are ready to 100% join guarantees for us. We need serious players. We need a circle of countries that are ready to provide any weapons within 24 hours, we need sanctions to be developed in advance and that in the first second, when we felt a threat from the Russian Federation, the circle of these states unite and introduce everything at once. So this state (Russia) be driven under the flask," he said.

The president of Ukraine also criticized the ideas of "demilitarization" and "denazification" that Russia would like to include in the agreement.

"We forgot the phrase "demilitarization" even when I was offered to leave Kyiv. Denazification sounds insulting, we can use this term in your direction and, as Bucha showed, we will be right," Zelensky said.

According to him, "we explained that the army should correspond to the army that we have, which is capable of defending our state. We understand that even if we sign the most powerful agreement, Russia can return in 2 years."
