Responding to reporters via WhatsApp on Sunday, Zelensky acknowledged that Ukraine's NATO membership bid is not supported by all members of the alliance and proposed a number of bilateral Article 5-like security guarantees instead.
The compromise comes as talks get underway in Berlin to fine-tune the 20-point plan brokered by the US to reach a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine.
Eager to make sure European leaders have a seat at the negotiating table as they pledge to keep financing Kyiv,
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is hosting the talks.
But Zelensky's first meetings are bilaterals, with U.S.
President Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner, who have been leaning on Ukraine to accept painful ceasefire terms.

President Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law and advisor Jared Kushner are meeting delegations from Ukraine, Germany, France and the United Kingdom in Berlin, according to media reports.
It is seen as a strong signal that the U.S.
is eager to iron out differences in its peace deal for Ukraine and Russia.
Trump had said that he would only send officials to Berlin if he felt enough progress would be made.
