Chairmen of Foreign Affairs Committees of 20 European countries emphasise in their Joint Statement today that just and lasting peace cannot be achieved by yielding to the aggression, but rather be based on international law.
JOINT STATEMENT OF THE CHAIRS OF THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS COMMITTEES IN SUPPORT OF A JUST AND LASTING PEACE IN EUROPE 24 November 2025 Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine — and the peace that follows — will shape European security for generations and affect the existential interests of all Europeans. Our goal has always been, and remains, a just and lasting peace that is grounded in international law and fully respects Ukraine's territorial integrity, independence, and sovereignty. Such a peace cannot be achieved by yielding to or rewarding the aggressor, it requires sustained pressure on Russia and unwavering support for Ukraine for any solution to succeed. Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine, and nothing about Europe without Europe. A just and lasting peace is impossible without these fundamentals. We call for urgent meetings of European Icaders and the European Council to take a united, principled stand. Genuine negotiations cannot begin with Ukraine being asked to pre-emptively accept Russian demands. The era of empires is over, and Europe will never accept as legitimate any notion of Russian "security interests" that extend beyond its borders or presume the right to shape Europe's security order. Any agreement must focus on ending the war, securing Ukraine's future, and supporting its reconstruction. Ukraine's security guarantees must be real - based on legally binding commitments and reinforced by reassurance forces in Ukraine and the capabilities necessary to deter future aggression. Ukraine must not be subjected to limits on its armed forces or constraints on its foreign or domestic policies while Russia faces none. At a minimum, Russia must withdraw its troops from occupied territories and engage with international bodies to ensure accountability for those responsible for atrocities. Any negotiations must begin with an immediate ceasefire. European security, Ukraine's sovereignty - including its right to choose its own alliances - and justice for the cr… Christian Friis Bach Johannes Koskinen Bruno Fuchs Chair, Foreign Policy Committee Denmark Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Finland Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee National Assembly France Pawel Bartoszek John Lahart Giulio Tremonti Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Iceland Chair, Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade Ireland Chair, Foreign and Community Affairs Committee Chamber of Deputies Italy Stefania Craxi Inãra Murniece Remigijus Motuzas Chair, Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defence Senate Italy Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Latvia Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Lithuania Gusty Graas Jesse Klaver Ine Eriksen Sereide Chair, Committee for Foreign and European Affairs Luxembourg Chair, Committee on Foreign Affairs House of Representatives Netherlands MP, The Conservative Party Stortinget Norway Pawel Kowal Gregorz Schetyna José Cesário Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Sejm Poland Chair, Foreign Affairs Commitee Chair, Committee on Foreign Affairs and Portuguese Communities Portugal Juan Carlos Ruiz Boix José Ignacio Landaluce Calleja Mattias Karlsson Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Congress of Deputies Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Spain Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Sweden Oleksandr Merezhko Ivanna Klympush-Tsintsadze Emily Thornberry Chair, Committee on Foreign Policy Ukraine Chair, Committee on Ukraine's The Eration into Ukraine Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee House of Commons United Kingdom David McAllister Chair, Committee on Foreign Affairs European Parliament

A U.S. official, who spoke like others on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter, said that the president hasn't been as involved in the specifics. "You tell him, T'm going to try to get a deal.' He will say, 'Great, go see what you can do.' And that's the level of detail he has," the official said, later adding, "It's been absolute chaos all day because even different parts of the White House don't know what's going on. It's embarrassing."

Finally, we hear actual legal terms. Thank you @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu

As someone who studied EU Policy, I appreciate this.

My question is though - how stable is any ceasefire if Russia is entitled to keep what they occupied even if the change to actual, legal UA borders isn’t recognized?

And now WH releases the same statement as KYIV, sort of contradicting themselves
JOINT STATEMENT ON UNITED STATES-UKRAINE MEETING On 23 November 2025, representatives of the United States and Ukraine met in Geneva for discussions on the U.S. peace proposal. The talks were constructive, focused, and respectful, underscoring the shared commitment to achieving a just and lasting peace. Both sides agreed the consultations were highly productive. The discussions showed meaningful progress toward aligning positions and identifying clear next steps. They reaffirmed that any future agreement must fully uphold Ukraine's sovereignty and deliver a sustainable and just peace. As a result of the discussions, the parties drafted an updated and refined peace framework. The Ukrainian delegation reaffirmed its gratitude for the steadfast commitment of the United States and, personally, President Donald J. Trump for their tireless efforts aimed at ending the war and the loss of life. Ukraine and the United States agreed to continue intensive work on joint proposals in the coming days. They will also remain in close contact with their European partners as the process advances. Final decisions under this framework will be made by the Presidents of Ukraine and the United States. Both sides reiterated their readiness to continue working together to secure a peace that ensures Ukraine's security, stability, and reconstruction.

WH readout
Readout of Peace Talks in Geneva Between Secretary Rubio, Special Envoy Witkoff, Mr. Kushner, Secretary Driscoll, and the Ukrainian Delegation Today, Secretary Rubio, Special Envoy Witkoff, Mr. Jared Kushner, and Secretary Driscoll held an extensive and productive meeting with the Ukrainian delegation to review the latest draft agreements under discussion. The conversation was candid, detailed, and conducted in a spirit of partnership and shared purpose. The Ukrainian delegation affirmed that all of their principal concerns-security guarantees, long-term economic development, infrastructure protection, freedom of navigation, and political sovereignty-were thoroughly addressed during the meeting. They expressed appreciation for the structured approach taken to incorporate their feedback into each component of the emerging settlement framework. Ukrainian representatives stated that, based on the revisions and clarifications presented today, they believe the current draft reflects their national interests and provides credible and enforceable mechanisms to safeguard Ukraine's security in both the near and long term. They underscored that the strengthened security guarantee architecture, combined with commitments on non-aggression, energy stability, and reconstruction, meaningfully addresses their core strategic requirements. Secretary Rubio and his team reiterated the United States' firm commitment to ensuring that Ukraine's sovereignty, security, and future prosperity remain central to the ongoing diplomatic process. They emphasized that this work is driven by President Trump's goal of ending a war that has taken the lives of millions of people and preventing further loss of life through a durable and enforceable peace. Both sides welcomed the steady progress made and agreed to continue consultations as the agreements move toward final refinement. The meeting concluded with a shared understanding that today marked a significant step forward, and that continued close coordination will be essential as the Parties work toward a durable, comprehensive peace.
