ALASKA, AUG 11 – European leaders seek urgent talks with Trump to influence peace talks before his summit with Putin amid ongoing Ukraine war and calls for Kyiv’s inclusion, officials said.
- On Monday in Brussels, European leaders sought talks with U.S. President Donald J. Trump before his Friday summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska.
- Leaders of the Nordic and Baltic countries, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Britain, Finland, and EU Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen insisted that Ukraine must be involved in peace decisions, emphasizing its importance for regional security.
- EU ambassadors were briefed on Sunday, and foreign ministers will convene virtually on Monday, as US Vice President JD Vance said he’s coordinating schedules for a meeting among Trump, Putin, and Zelenskyy.
- With Zelenskyy excluded, European leaders fear being sidelined, as allies worry Trump and Putin might agree to land swaps without Ukraine’s participation, risking territorial ceding.
- More than 12,000 Ukrainian civilians have been killed, and 70% of Ukrainians want negotiations to end the bloodshed, but Zelenskyy insists talks begin with a front-line ceasefire.
