Zajednička izjava čelnika Francuske, Njemačke, Poljske, Ujedinjenog Kraljevstva i Ukrajine nakon sastanka u Kijevu: Čelnici su se složili da bi trebalo biti potpuno i bezuvjetno primirje u trajanju od najmanje 30 dana od ponedjeljka, 12. svibnja. Bezuvjetno primirje, po definiciji, ne može biti podložno nikakvim uvjetima. Ako bi Rusija nametnula takve uvjete, to bi se moglo smatrati samo pokušajem produljenja rata i potkopavanja diplomacije. Zahtijevali su da primirje bude sveobuhvatno: u zraku, na moru i na kopnu. Naglasili su da bi to zahtijevalo učinkovito praćenje, koje bi se moglo uspješno provesti u bliskoj koordinaciji sa Sjedinjenim Državama. Složili su se da primirje treba trajati najmanje 30 dana kako bi se stvorio prostor za diplomaciju.

Ministar vanjskih poslova Ukrajine: Nakon sastanka Koalicije voljnih u Kijevu, svih pet čelnika @ZelenskyyUa @EmmanuelMacron @bundeskanzler @donaldtusk @Keir_Starmer imali su plodonosan razgovor s @POTUS usmjeren na mirovne napore. Ukrajina i svi saveznici spremni su za potpuno bezuvjetno primirje na kopnu, u zraku i na moru u trajanju od najmanje 30 dana, počevši već od ponedjeljka. Ako se Rusija složi i osigura učinkovito praćenje, trajno primirje i mjere izgradnje povjerenja mogu utrti put mirovnim pregovorima.

Macron: Pravedan i trajan mir počinje potpunim i bezuvjetnim prekidom vatre. To je prijedlog koji napredujemo sa Sjedinjenim Državama. Ukrajina ga je prihvatila 11. ožujka. Rusija, međutim, odugovlači, postavlja preduvjete, kupuje vrijeme i nastavlja svoj invazijski rat. Ako Moskva nastavi opstruirati, pojačat ćemo pritisak - zajedno, kao Europljani i u bliskoj koordinaciji sa Sjedinjenim Državama. Pozdravljamo poziv predsjednika Trumpa da krenemo naprijed u tom smjeru.
