The German government denies that Germany, together with France and Great Britain, have concrete plans concerning a defence pact with Ukraine.

As German media outlet Tagesschau reports, a German government representative stated that the debates among Ukraine’s allies concerning the security guarantees began a few weeks after the war started.

Quote: "There has been no new, concrete status in the last few months. At the latest meeting of Olaf Scholz, the chancellor of Germany, and Emmanuel Macron, the President of France, with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the President of Ukraine, this issue was of no significance."

Earlier this week, the Wall Street Journal reported that Great Britain, Germany and France offered that Ukraine make an agreement with NATO, which will give it more access to Western military equipment, but at the same time suggests resuming peaceful negotiations with Russia.

This offer allegedly provides that Ukraine and NATO will make an agreement about cooperation that still will not guarantee NATO membership, while obliging Kyiv to start peaceful negotiations with Moscow.

At the meeting in Paris in early February Emmanuel Macron, the President of France, and Olaf Scholz, the chancellor of Germany, told Volodymyr Zelenskyy that he must consider the possibility of peaceful negotiations with Russia.
