European Union leaders convened an emergency summit today to address Ukraine’s future amid U.S. President Donald Trump’s aggressive push for a rapid peace deal with Russia.
The meeting follows Trump’s unilateral decision to pause U.S. military aid and intelligence-sharing with Ukraine, pressuring Kyiv to negotiate with Moscow.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signaled readiness to join talks under Trump’s leadership, proposing a ceasefire framework, while EU leaders scramble to bolster military support and counterbalance U.S. policy shifts.
