In a summit that sounds like the Avengers got sucked into diplomacy, European heavyweights Keir Starmer, Emmanuel Macron, Friedrich Merz, Giorgia Meloni, and Finland's Alexander Stubb joined Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House to square off with Donald Trump’s US-backed plan. Their mission? To slam the brakes on proposals allowing Russia to munch away more Ukrainian land. The stakes?
