M008-BELGICA REUNION ZELENSKI CON RUTTE VON DER LEYEN Y COSTA
STORY: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy met NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, EU's Ursula von der Leyen and Antonio Costa in Brussels on Monday (December 8), after talks in London with leaders of Britain, Germany and France on efforts to end the war with Russia.
The leaders of France, Germany and Britain staged a strong show of support for Zelenskiy in London at what they described as a "crucial time" for Kyiv, under U.S. pressure to agree a proposed peace deal with Russia.
At a hastily arranged meeting, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and Zelenskiy said they wanted to come up with firm plans in case of a peace deal.
U.S. President Donald Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner brought a revised plan to Moscow last week, then held several days of further talks with Ukrainian officials in Miami, which ended on Saturday (December 6) with no breakthrough.
