Zelenskiy presses allies for 'clear position' on security guarantees

March 15 (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy told Kyiv's Western allies on Saturday that they must "define a clear position on security guarantees", including about basing a troop contingent on Ukrainian soil.

"The contingent must be stationed on Ukrainian soil," Zelenskiy said in a post on X, alongside an image of him taking part in a virtual call with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other European leaders and other Western allies.

"This is a security guarantee for Ukraine and a security guarantee for Europe," he said.
