Security guarantees for Ukraine — what is known so far
The draft declaration states that after the ceasefire comes into force in Ukraine, a system of guarantees is planned to be launched.
It will consist of 5 components:

"We agreed to finalize binding commitments that will define our approach to supporting Ukraine and restoring peace and security in the event of a future armed attack by Russia," the draft declaration states.
