According to her, the Russian Federation will have to provide security guarantees to Ukraine.

On Sunday, Oksana Markarova, Ukraine's ambassador to the US, said that if Russia agreed to end its invasion of Ukraine and withdraw from the country, reparations and security guarantees would need to be addressed.

When asked by a CBS program about Ukraine's vision of ending the war, Markarova said:

They need to stop and get out of Ukraine. But we also need to talk about reparations, security guarantees, and everything else.

Commenting on the words of US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken that the lifting of sanctions against Russia may be linked to security guarantees against Ukraine, Markarova noted:

Secretary Blinken said what he said. But for us, obviously, this is a brutal attack. We have lost people, many of our cities have been destroyed and continue to be destroyed.

Earlier, Blinken, in an NPR commentary, clarified that simply stopping the invasion of Ukraine may not be enough to lift the sanctions imposed on Russia for the invasion.

If the war ends, Ukraine's independence, territorial integrity, sovereignty are restored, then many of the tools we use to achieve this result - they are not intended for permanent use - will cease to operate. But there are also some "irreversible" sanctions - we want to make sure that everything that has been done is already irreversible, that it cannot happen again, that Russia will pull itself together and not do what it is doing now, in a year, two or three.
