“I do think it would be a good idea if he signed an economic and commercial deal put forward by the United States.
“The reason I say that quite apart from the economic gain that Ukraine will derive from that, it will also give the United States a stake in Ukraine’s future: it will mean that US commercial interests, US individual citizens will be on the ground there, and that will be an even greater added incentive for the US to protect Ukraine in future and make sure that war does not ensue again.
“That’s what I want to see, that’s what we all want to see.”
