Overview
- Volodymyr Zelensky met in Downing Street with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, France’s Emmanuel Macron and Germany’s Friedrich Merz to coordinate a common European stance and prioritize credible security guarantees.
- Zelensky said the E3 maintained a shared position on Ukraine’s security and agreed next steps after discussing their joint diplomatic work with Washington.
- Three days of negotiations in Miami between U.S. and Ukrainian teams ended without a breakthrough, with Kyiv citing unresolved questions on territory and the structure of guarantees.
- President Donald Trump said he was "a little disappointed" Zelensky had not read the latest proposal and suggested Russia was comfortable with it, even as the Kremlin previously rejected parts of the U.S. plan and praised Washington’s new security strategy.
- Multiple drafts of the plan have circulated, including reports of suggested concessions in Donbas that Kyiv and European leaders oppose, while Russia escalated strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure over the weekend and Ukraine reported hitting Russia’s Ryazan oil refinery.
