【European Proposes Six-Point Security Assurance Plan for Ukraine】 On December 15, the European side issued a joint statement announcing a security assurance plan for Ukraine. The plan includes six aspects, covering topics such as military support, security mechanisms, post-war reconstruction, and the process of European integration.
The statement said that Europe will continue to provide military support to Ukraine, maintaining a force of about 800,000 troops in peacetime, to enhance deterrence capabilities and ensure its territorial security.
According to the plan, Europe, with the support of the United States, will rely on the "voluntary alliance" mechanism to establish a multinational force led by Europe, focusing on rebuilding the Ukrainian armed forces, strengthening air defense and maritime security, and conducting relevant operations within Ukraine when necessary.
In terms of ceasefire arrangements, Europe proposed establishing a monitoring mechanism led by the United States and involving the international community to monitor the implementation of the ceasefire, promptly issue early warnings for potential attacks, and record and respond to violations.
The statement also emphasized that Ukraine would be provided with legally binding security guarantees. If Ukraine is attacked, the relevant parties have an obligation to respond through various means including military, intelligence, economic, and diplomatic measures.
In the economic aspect, Europe plans to provide financial support for Ukraine's reconstruction, promote related trade agreements, and require Russia to compensate for the losses caused by the war. At the same time, the frozen assets of Russia within the EU will remain frozen.
Additionally, Europe reiterated its stance of supporting Ukraine's accession to the EU. Europe #Peace Plan
