"The French official said the talks aimed at narrowing differences with the United States and centered on territory and potential security guarantees for Ukraine once there is a peace accord. Those discussions include the possibility of a NATO Article-5 type clause involving Washington that would seek to reassure Kyiv in case it was once again attacked by Russia, the official said.
The Europeans have also faced pressure in recent weeks with some American proposals touching on elements that concern NATO and the European Union, including suggestions on fast-tracking Ukraine's accession to the bloc.
"The European perspective of Ukraine is clear and it's a realistic perspective," the official said. "That is what we are committed to and it is up to the Europeans and the Ukrainians to agree on how to proceed.""

The question is: how badly does the EU want to start WWIII?
The French response to the peace proposal is to essentially have Ukraine join NATO and not surrender territory.
