Europe Praises Trump
Trump Praised for Bold Summit With Putin
European leaders came together Saturday to praise President Donald Trump after his high-profile summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The leaders agreed that any final deal must include ironclad security guarantees for Ukraine and a clear path for NATO membership.
They applauded Trump’s determination to end the bloodshed, stop Russia’s aggression, and secure a peace that lasts. As Trump himself put it: “There’s no deal until there’s a deal.”
Next Step: Trump Meets Zelenskyy in Washington
Trump confirmed that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will meet him at the White House on Monday. After that, Trump says, a face-to-face with Putin could follow — a step that could save millions of lives.
European leaders said Trump’s leadership is opening the door to a real peace process. Signatories included France’s Emmanuel Macron, Italy’s Giorgia Meloni, Germany’s Friedrich Metz, the U.K.’s Keir Starmer, Finland’s Alexander Stubb, Poland’s Donald Tusk, and EU officials Ursula von der Leyen and Antonio Costa.
Trump Shifts Strategy Toward Direct Peace Agreement
Reports following the summit revealed a new Trump strategy: skipping over calls for a temporary ceasefire and moving directly to a binding peace agreement. That shift places Trump on the side of decisive action, while Zelenskyy continues to insist on a ceasefire first.
Europe Pushes for Strong Security Guarantees
In their statement, European allies made clear they back Trump’s call for security assurances:
“Ukraine must have ironclad security guarantees. The United States is prepared to step up, and the Coalition of the Willing will play an active role. Russia cannot veto Ukraine’s path to NATO or the European Union.”
The warning comes amid growing concerns that Putin could use negotiations as a stalling tactic while advancing further into Ukraine.
Conclusion: Trump Leading the Way to Peace
For now, Trump’s bold diplomacy is shifting the conversation away from endless war and toward a real solution. Europe has aligned with his vision — and millions are watching to see if his next meeting with Zelenskyy, and possibly Putin, will finally deliver the peace the world has been waiting for.
