Ukraine security guarantees for 15 years after the war’s end, but Kiev wants 30 to 50 years to deter Russia from future aggression

30-50 years sounds very reasonable to me since Putin the Terrible has already invaded the Ukraine twice in 2014 and in 2022 despite Russia has already agreed to the territorial integrity of the Ukraine after the collapse of the former Soviet Union.

The Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons in 1994, the third largest arsenal of nuclear weapons, for security and territorial integrity. Russia did not care or honor!

Who will defend this guarantee against any renewed Russian aggression? NATO, European countries, the US alone?

I just blogged here about a very reasonable peace agreement proposal by President Zelensky.

"Trump said he “would think about it,” according to Zelensky. The two presidents met in Florida yesterday to discuss a U.S.-drafted peace plan. Trump said he expected Kyiv’s European allies to contribute significantly to the effort, with U.S. backing. The White House declined to comment beyond its statements made yesterday."
