KYIV (AP) – European and NATO leader Ukraine President Volodimir Zelancesi, who, said on Sunday by European Commission Chairman Ursula von Der Leyen for his important meeting with President Donald Trump.
Steps regarding the meeting of the White House on Monday is a clear effort that when he met Trump at the Oval Office in February, the hot encounter is a clear effort to prevent Zelanceci’s repetition.
The presence of European leaders in favor of Zelancesi can demonstrate Europe’s support for Ukraine, possibly helping to reduce concerns in Kiev and other European capitals that Zelansky is at risk of having a railroad in a peace deal that Trump says he wants to broke out with Russia.
Von Der Leyen, head of the European Union Executive Branch, posted on X that “at the request of President Zelansky, I will attend the meeting with President Trump and other European leaders at the White House tomorrow.”
In a quick succession on Sunday, a stream of European leaders also announced that they were leaving. They included French President Emmanuel Macron, Chancellor of Germany, Frederick Merz and NATO Military Alliance General Secretary, Mark Rute.
The grouped journey determined the determination of European leaders to ensure that there is a voice in Europe’s peace-making attempt in Europe, after the US President’s summit with Russian leader Vladimir Putin on Friday-Zelanski was not invited.
