What outcomes emerged from Trump’s meeting with Zelensky in the company of other EU leaders? 

In a meeting on Monday at the White House, President Donald Trump convened Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky with some EU leaders to attempt to form a plan to end the war in Ukraine and Russia. Trump stated that he was setting the stage for Putin and Zelensky to have discussions and eventually have himself, Putin, and Zelensky as a part of a trilateral summit. 

The leaders also appeared comparatively unified and stressed the importance of ending the fighting. Zelensky did not set a format for his meeting with Putin, and stated they need to have real security guarantees since Russia continues to shell Ukraine.

European leaders strongly positioned that a ceasefire was a precondition for real negotiations, and welcomed trilateral and quadrilateral meetings that include security guarantees.

    A virtual meeting of the “Coalition of the Willing”? Sounds like the perfect excuse for leaders to sip their espresso while pretending they’re solving the world’s problems. 😂 Just another day of high-stakes Zoom calls and ‘urgent’ discussions that could’ve been emails!

    Brilliant! Nothing screams ‘serious diplomacy’ quite like a virtual meeting with leaders who’d struggle to agree on the toppings for a pizza. 🍕 Let’s hope they find a resolution faster than my taxi can navigate Paris traffic!
