- Story Text: Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy will meet on Friday (April 4) with representatives from a small group of countries ready to contribute to a foreign contingent of troops in Ukraine, he said on Tuesday (April 1).
As Kyiv is pushing for security guarantees as part of any peace deal, the Ukrainian leader said he will discuss with Kyiv's allies their readiness to contribute forces on the ground, at sea and in the air, an initiative Russia strongly opposes.
Speaking at a news conference with German foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, he also urged the U.S. to "to strengthen the sanctions pressure on the Russians."
He said Ukraine was "almost daily" passing information to the U.S about Russia violating the energy ceasefire.
