President Trump is hosting a high-stakes meeting with European leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky this afternoon, following a Bilateral meeting with Zelensky.
The meetings are focused on securing peace between Ukraine and Russia.
Zelensky was joined at the White House on Monday by several European leaders, including NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, French President Emmanuel Macron, and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
President Trump and Zelensky spoke to the press earlier for approximately 30 minutes.
Zelensky said during the meeting that what he needs guaranteed in order to make a deal “includes two parts, first, a strong Ukrainian army that I began to discuss with your colleagues, and it’s a lot about weapons, people, training issues, and intelligence.”
He continued, “Second, we will discuss with our partners. It depends on the big countries, on the United States, on a lot of our friends.”
This comes after Trump met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday, and the two came to an agreement to secure peace, pending Ukraine and NATO cooperation.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump said that he will speak to Putin again after his meetings as he hopes to organize a trilateral meeting with Putin and Zelensky.
The meeting with all leaders is scheduled to begin at 3 pm ET.
