It was a reference to Trump’s vicious verbal attack on Zelensky at the White House, and European leaders wondered whether the US was still considered an ally. Shortly after a spectacular 15-minute scout, European Union foreign policy director Kaja Karas suggested that America was no longer leading the “free world” and nagging doubts remained uneasy during the temperatures cooled over the weekend.
British Prime Minister Kiel Starmer, who organized the March 2 summit in front of Trump Zelensky Spat, said on Sunday that Europe now has to “have a heavy lift” when it comes to protecting Ukraine from Russian expansionism.
After breaking into the US president and himself at the beginning of the week, priorities see themselves as something like bridge builders. The UK, together with France and Ukraine, will create a peace plan and present it to Trump. This is a significant shift from the previous assumption that the US will be led.
Future plans include a British-France-led peacekeeping force called Willing’s Union, an echo of a group of US-led countries that invaded Iraq in 2003. French President Emmanuel Macron has brought the idea of a month-long ceasefire that applies to air, maritime and energy infrastructure.
Who else is in that coalition still exists in the air. “Many” countries have signed peacekeeping forces behind closed doors at the summit, Starmer added that we need to support our work. He refused to say which government committed.
He said the United States is still a “trusted ally” and “we agree with the president about the urgent need for durable peace and now we need to save together.”
