The end of peace talks is still far away — Tusk
Tusk considers the US statement on participation in security guarantees for Ukraine to be a success of the recent talks.
After night-long talks with European leaders, one thing is certain: the West and Ukraine will lose this confrontation if Russia can divide us and dictate the terms of peace. The statement on US participation in security guarantees is a success. But the negotiations are still far from over.

Prime Minister of Poland
Po nocnych rozmowach z liderami państw europejskich pewne jest jedno: Zachód i Ukraina przegrają tę konfrontację, jeśli Rosja zdoła nas podzielić i podyktować warunki pokoju. Sukcesem jest deklaracja udziału USA w gwarancjach bezpieczeństwa. Ale do finału rozmów wciąż daleko.
