Ahead of a Trump-Putin summit later this week, EU foreign ministers called for “transatlantic unity” on Monday to back Ukraine and put further pressure on Russia. EU top diplomat Kaja Kallas stated after the informal virtual foreign affairs council (FAC), which Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha also attended, that ministers “expressed support for US steps that will lead to a just peace.” To put an end to this conflict and stop Russian aggression in Europe in the future, we must unite the transatlantic, support Ukraine, and exert pressure on Russia.
“Meanwhile, we are pursuing additional penalties against Russia, additional military support for Ukraine and more help for Ukraine’s budgetary needs and entrance process to join the EU,” she said.
Trump has expressed his desire to convene a trilateral meeting with the Ukrainian prime minister, although Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not anticipated to accompany them. European heads of state are frantically contacting each other in anticipation of the next meeting, fearing that they may be excluded from a pact that they will likely have to uphold the majority of.
The leaders of Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, the United Kingdom, and the European Commission in a joint statement released over the weekend reaffirmed their position that “the path to peace in Ukraine cannot be decided without Ukraine.
