European Leaders to Join Zelenskyy and Trump at White House Summit, von der Leyen Confirms..
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced on Sunday that she will travel to Washington to meet with Donald Trump and other European leaders at the White House on Monday. The meeting comes at the request of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, as international pressure mounts over the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Von der Leyen also confirmed that she will first meet Zelenskyy in Brussels later today, where both will attend a gathering of European leaders aligned with the so-called “coalition of the willing.”
The talks are expected to focus on Ukraine’s defense needs, European security guarantees, and potential diplomatic steps in light of Trump’s push for a direct peace deal with Russia.
Coalition of the Willing: 30 Nations Back Ukraine With Security Guarantees Amid Peace Deal Talks..
The coalition of the willing, originally formed by the UK and France as the Trump administration signaled a potential withdrawal of U.S. security support for Europe, now includes over 30 countries united in backing Ukraine.
The group’s core mission is to provide security guarantees for Ukraine if a peace deal is reached between Kyiv and Moscow. Several member states – including France and the UK – have already pledged to send troops on the ground to help enforce any potential agreement and deter further Russian aggression.
The coalition has become a crucial pillar of Western efforts to ensure Ukraine’s sovereignty and long-term security, particularly as debates intensify over whether to pursue a direct peace deal or maintain military pressure on Russia.
