European leaders are rallying behind a bold diplomatic move: a potential three-way meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, U.S. President Donald Trump, and Russian President Vladimir Putin. The proposal comes after Trump and Putin’s recent Alaska summit, described by Trump as "very productive" despite no concrete deal.
In a joint statement signed by top EU figures like Ursula von der Leyen and Emmanuel Macron, leaders emphasized "ironclad security guarantees" for Ukraine and rejected any Russian veto over Kyiv’s EU or NATO aspirations. 🔒 The statement stressed: "International borders must not be changed by force."
Key takeaways:
- 🇪🇺 Europe vows to maintain sanctions against Russia until fighting stops
- 🤝 Trump to meet Zelenskyy in Washington Monday
- 🌐 Leaders insist Ukraine alone decides its territorial future
While details remain scarce, the push signals growing urgency to resolve the conflict. As one diplomat quipped: "This isn’t your grandparents’ Cold War diplomacy." Stay tuned for updates! 📡
