Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Kachka said negotiators “have reached agreement at the working level on a political document that can be signed at any moment.”
But he cautioned that the accord is only a framework, far from a finished treaty.
“It’s essentially a set of tasks,” Kachka said.
“There are five or seven different workstreams that need to happen to make this a reality.” Once signed, he added, the agreement will commit Ukraine, the European Union, and the United States to jointly develop dozens of legal instruments.
Asked whether the signing could take place at the Davos summit (which runs through Jan. 23), Kachka replied, “The likelihood is there.”
Previously, Axios quoted an unnamed Ukrainian official saying the signing had been postponed due to rising U.S.–EU tensions over Greenland. The sudden American push to “acquire” the Danish island reportedly derailed plans to leverage the forum for a broader U.S.-Ukraine-EU agreement on security guarantees and Ukraine’s postwar recovery.
