European leaders meet on Ukraine as U.S. takes independent approach

European leaders gathered in Paris yesterday to discuss a coordinated response as the Trump administration prepared to launch its own talks with Russia about ending the war in Ukraine. The discussions focused on military spending and strategies to guarantee Ukraine’s security in case of a permanent cease-fire or a peace agreement.


The future of the war remains uncertain:


Ukraine faces difficulties in reversing Russia’s recent battlefield gains.

Any peace deal may require Kyiv to make territorial concessions.

Russia continues to suffer losses, with approximately 1,000 casualties daily and severe economic strain due to Western sanctions.

A peace settlement could potentially lead to a reduction in sanctions, but the path forward remains unclear.
