""We have largely finished the security protocols," said Steve Witkoff, one of the two emissaries, as he stood alongside the leaders of France, Germany, the UK and Ukraine at the presidential palace in Paris."
""This is important so that when this war ends, it ends forever," he said."
"On Tuesday, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz announced that Germany could also play a military role and deploy "forces on NATO territory neighboring Ukraine," after a ceasefire has been achieved."
""Who could it be? I think maybe Australia, or definitely Turkey which is a major player in the Black Sea," Kirkegaard said."
Allies met in Paris to firm up security guarantees for Ukraine with US peace envoys present. Steve Witkoff said security protocols are largely finished and emphasized that the war must end permanently. France and the UK signed a declaration of intent to deploy a multinational force to support Ukraine's defense, reconstruction and strategic sustainability.

Spain expressed willingness to send troops, and experts noted the multinational label allows additional European and non-European participants such as Australia or Turkey.
