Ukraine brings European reinforcements to White House

London – If he wants to give the leader of Ukraine the same welcome made to him by Vladimir Putin of Russia, President Donald Trump may need a larger red carpet.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy will bring heavy goods vehicles to the White House on Monday – a troop of European leaders probably hoping that there is no repetition of his last oval force test at a time of even greater participations for his country and the continent.

The extraordinary public end between Zelenskyy, Trump and Vice-President JD Vance in February amaze the European powers.

Trump accused a wasp Zelenskyy of “playing with the Second World War” and disrespecting the White House while the cameras took place, before cutting the short meeting and telling the Ukrainian leader To come back “when he is ready for peace”.

He returned Monday flanked by leaders of Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy and Finland, as well as the heads of the European Union and NATO – a demonstration of solidarity and an effort to ensure that Europe has a real voice in peace after being excluded from the Trump summit with Putin in Alaska.

“This is a demonstration of European unity and support for Ukraine precisely to avoid what happened in February repeating itself,” New Mujtaba Rahman, general manager of Europe in Eurasia told NBC.

He added that the European side would be “impatient to prevent Zelenskyy from being intimidated to make concessions”, after Trump fueled a new alarm among the allies of Ukraine seemingly leaning towards the vision of Kremlin on things after his talks with Putin.

The American president did not offer any reason to think that it had changed in the hours preceding the rally of the White House on Monday.

Trump put the burden on Zelenskyy, saying that he could “end the war almost immediately, if he wanted it”, and that there was “no NATO by Ukraine” and “no recovery” of the Crimean Peninsula that Russia illegally annexed in 2014.

This public pressure has fueled fears of being able to increase the heat of Zelenskyy to accept territorial concessions in exchange for a peace agreement.

Therefore, the Ukrainian leader will not go alone.

In British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, NATO chief Mark Rutte and Finnish President Alexander Stubb, the European contingent featured three men considered successful to win the favor of Trump.

They hope to use this influence to reverse the apparent breakthroughs that Putin made in Alaska.

The meeting in Washington will also give managers the opportunity to discuss future security guarantees for Ukraine, which the American special envoy Steve Witkoff floated on Sunday, as being potentially similar to article 5 of NATO.

Ukraine hoped to use the meeting to negotiate a security guarantee for any test and convince Trump that a temporary cease-fire is necessary to start real peace talks, a familiar Ukrainian source told NBC News. Security guarantees should be obligations at the Treaty level, according to the source, which require the approval of the Senate.

Rahman said that the nature of security guarantees was “absolutely essential to prevent Russian aggression in the future”, saying that Europeans would go to Washington in the hope of “determining the details of the United States’s participation in Ukraine’s future security”.

Citing fatal strikes in Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia, Zelenskyy said on Monday that Russia was continuing its attacks on its country when talks were continuing in order to “maintain pressure on Ukraine and Europe, as well as humiliating diplomatic efforts”.

And in Kyiv, many believe that conceding the territory within the framework of the broader peace agreement that Trump would not end the war at all – it would only encourage Moscow to push further.

“It is precisely this so-called long-term tranquility that would allow him to continue to wage war,” said Oleksiy Goncarenko, legislative of the Ukrainian opposition party “European solidarity”. “The fastest step is to first establish a ceasefire, and only then start negotiations.”

The leaders of Europe seem to share this instinct.

“If we are weak with Russia today, we prepare the conflicts of tomorrow and they will have an impact on the Ukrainians and – – do not go wrong – they can also have an impact on us.” French president Emmanuel Macron said on Sunday.

If February was a fiasco, Monday is the do -over – this time with hits.
