Europe’s leaders are rallying to support Zelenskyy, after the White House blow-up between Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US President Trump. Can Europe’s leaders salvage the situation when they meet Zelenskyy at a crisis summit in London tomorrow? Follow Euronews live updates here.
Trump is saying the raw minerals deal with Ukraine — which brought Zelenskyy to the White House on Friday — is off, and posted on his Truth Social platform on Friday that he “determined that President Zelenskyy is not ready for peace if America is involved, because he feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in negotiations.”
Shortly after the heated and at times angry words mainly aimed at Zelenskyy, Europe’s top politicians took to X to express their continued unconditional support for Zelenskyy and Ukraine.
“Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It is up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge,” the EU’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas stated.
