In an evening video address on Saturday, Zelenskyy said Kyiv is currently preparing for the talks in Germany, stating that Berlin will host a number of events during this period, including a briefing by Ukraine’s senior negotiator Rustem Umerov and the country’s negotiating team on discussions held.

He said that Chief of the General Staff Andrii Hnatov, as well as representatives of Ukraine’s defense and security sector, will be working on the details of security guarantees for Kyiv, while government officials continue discussions with the US and Europe on the country’s post-war recovery and development.

“Most importantly, I will be meeting with envoys of (US) President (Donald) Trump, and there will also be meetings with our European partners, with many leaders, concerning the foundation of peace – a political agreement to end the war,” Zelenskyy said.

He said they are working to ensure “peace for Ukraine is dignified,” and to secure a guarantee to prevent any future conflict.

“Over these days in Berlin, we will work as actively and constructively as possible with everyone who can genuinely bring the agreement to normal terms. Further meetings and contacts will follow as well,” he added.

The Ukrainian president’s remarks come as German Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s office announced he will host Zelenskyy and several European leaders in Berlin on Monday to discuss the latest developments in peace negotiations.
