As the US and Russia prepare for peace talks about Ukraine, European leaders are scrambling to respond to the evolving situation. French President Emmanuel Macron has called an emergency summit in Paris, where leaders from across Europe will discuss the implications of the upcoming discussions. The summit is crucial as many European nations feel isolated from the peace process led by the US, particularly in light of recent efforts by the Trump administration. UK PM Keir Starmer will also attend, emphasizing the need for Europe to take a more significant role in NATO and asserting that no durable peace can be achieved in Ukraine without European involvement. The urgency of the situation is further underscored by calls for unity among EU member states to prevent divisions from hindering their collective security interests.
