Title: Europe Urges Trump to Protect Ukraine’s Interests in Upcoming Talks with Putin
European Leaders Call for Western Unity Amid Rising Concerns
Senior European officials and the President of the European Commission have jointly called on U.S. President Donald Trump to prioritize Ukraine’s and Europe’s vital interests in his upcoming talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska. The statement, published on the British government’s official website, underscores Europe’s unwavering support for Kyiv and its commitment to continued military aid.
A Firm Stance Against Russian Aggression
The signatories emphasized the necessity of maintaining Western unity in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine. The statement reaffirmed Europe’s solidarity with Ukraine and warned against any potential compromises that could undermine regional stability.
Growing Anxiety Over a Possible U.S.-Russia Deal
The New York Times recently reported deep concerns among European leaders about the possibility of a Trump-Putin agreement on Ukraine—one that could exclude the European Union. Trump’s past remarks suggesting territorial concessions between Moscow and Kyiv have further fueled unease in Ukraine and across Europe, raising fears of Washington softening its stance toward Russia.
High-Stakes Diplomacy Ahead
With Trump and Putin set to meet in Alaska on Friday, the discussions on Ukraine will be closely watched. European leaders are urging the U.S. to ensure any negotiations align with broader Western strategic interests, reinforcing the importance of transatlantic cooperation in addressing the crisis.
