European leaders are gathering in Brussels today for high-stakes discussions on Ukraine, the Middle East, and European defense—just as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy prepares to drop explosive details about his latest phone call with Donald Trump.
Zelenskyy’s debrief is expected to reveal Trump’s surprising stance on a potential ceasefire and his cryptic promise to “work with him to find what was available” for Ukrainian air defense. Could this signal a dramatic shift in U.S. policy, or is it a calculated message to Moscow? European leaders are eager to find out.
Meanwhile, as the EU debates its next move, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is making waves of his own. In a bold display of military resolve, he has summoned over 30 top army chiefs to London for urgent talks on forming a “coalition of the willing.” His recent visit to the nuclear-armed submarine HMS Vanguard—the first by a UK prime minister in over a decade—sends a clear message: Britain is preparing for a new era of defense strategy.
Despite Russian President Vladimir Putin’s warnings against Western military aid to Ukraine, Europe’s plans remain unchanged. With tensions rising and key leaders locked in discussions, today’s meetings could shape the future of the conflict—and the balance of power in Europe. Stay tuned for updates as events unfold.
