European leaders will join Ukraine's Zelenskyy for a meeting in Washington days after Donald Trump's summit with Russia's Putin in Alaska.

European leaders are to join the Ukrainian president during a visit that seeks a path to ending the war between Ukraine and Russia.

President Donald Trump will meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy Monday in Washington, D.C., days after Trump met with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss ending the war in Ukraine.

European leaders will join Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Washington, D.C., this week as he meets with President Trump at the White House, rallying around Ukraine's wartime president after Trump appeared to embrace a peace stance held by Vladimir Putin.

It is quite possible that Monday's meeting in the White House could prove even more crucial to the future of Ukraine - and for all of Europe's security - than last Friday's US-Russia summit in Alaska. On the surface, that Putin-Trump reunion seemed to live down to every expectation. There was no ceasefire, no sanctions, no grand announcements.

Zelenskyy is on far better terms with Trump. But when he comes to the White House on Aug. 18 to discuss a potential peace agreement with Russia, he'll still be in a challenging position. The Ukrainian leader is scheduled to meet with Trump and his advisers in the Oval Office alone before an expanded meeting with European leaders.

European leaders in a "coalition of the willing" are meeting to project unity in response to Putin’s demands at his summit with Trump ahead of Zelenskyy’s Washington visit.

Special U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff says Russian leader Vladimir Putin agreed to allow the U.S. and Europe to offer Ukraine a security guarantee resembling NATO's collective defense mandate.

Melania Trump took the unique step of crafting a letter that calls for peace in Ukraine, having her husband President Donald Trump hand-deliver it to Russian President Vladimir Putin during their Friday meeting in Alaska.
