European leaders to join Zelenskyy for meeting with Trump

European and NATO leaders will join President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Washington for talks with President Donald Trump on ending Russia’s war in Ukraine. The possibility of U.S. security guarantees is now on the negotiating table as Zelenskyy and the European delegation head to Washington on Monday. Leaders from France, Britain, Germany, Italy and Finland are rallying around the Ukrainian leader after his exclusion from Trump’s summit on Friday with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Their pledge to be at Zelenskyy’s side is an apparent effort to ensure the meeting goes better than the last one in February, when Trump berated Zelenskyy in a heated Oval Office encounter.
