Macron To Lead EU Talks with Russia? | Paris Seen as Key Voice for Ukraine Peace Bid From EU
French President Emmanuel Macron may soon take a leading role in representing the EU’s interests in potential talks with Russia over the Ukraine conflict, according to a report by The Telegraph.
While UK’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer has ruled out engagement, Macron is reportedly open to negotiation “when the time is right.” With Washington’s efforts ongoing and Trump hesitant, Europe’s "coalition of the willing" is eyeing Paris to spearhead talks.
Tensions remain high as ceasefire violations continue and fears of NATO escalation grow.

Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet Donald Trump in Washington on Monday, but this time he won’t face him alone. At Zelensky’s request, top European leaders—including Ursula von der Leyen, Keir Starmer, Emmanuel Macron, Giorgia Meloni, Friedrich Merz, and NATO’s Mark Rutte—will join to shield him from another Oval Office humiliation. February’s chaotic meeting, where Trump and JD Vance mocked Zelensky, left deep scars. Now, Europe’s united front aims to counter Trump’s confrontational style and prevent a repeat embarrassment for Ukraine.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, hesitant after his disastrous last meeting with Trump, will be joined by the new EU Chief for a tense White House visit. Critics claim Zelensky is “too scared” to face Trump alone, while Europe rallies behind Kyiv’s “no land” stance. British PM Keir Starmer, Macron, and Merz offered support, as Trump insists only a direct peace deal can end the war. In a dramatic twist, Melania Trump even appealed to Putin in a letter urging him to think of suffering children.

A historic confrontation is unfolding in Washington as President Donald Trump meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, joined by key European leaders including Macron, Merz, Meloni, Starmer, von der Leyen, Stubb, and NATO’s Mark Rutte. This comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he backed a plan for Ukraine to cede Crimea and parts of Donbas, abandon NATO, and accept neutrality. Europe and Kyiv fiercely reject this “surrender deal,” warning it rewards Russian aggression and threatens NATO itself. Trump’s transactional “America First” diplomacy—focused on quick wins and cutting U.S. military spending—clashes directly with Europe’s push for long-term security and continued military aid. As Russia intensifies strikes, Europe views concessions as catastrophic. Tensions inside the White House are boiling: will this meeting end in compromise, or spark a full-scale rift between America and Europe that could reshape global order?

Ukraine could soon receive NATO-like security guarantees as Zelensky visits Washington with top EU leaders. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff claims Russia has for the first time conceded to allowing America to provide “Article 5-style protections” to Ukraine—a breakthrough in negotiations. The proposed deal would shield Ukraine militarily without full NATO membership, avoiding Russia’s objections. While Zelensky calls the guarantees historic, disputes remain over territory. EU leaders back the plan, warning against any peace deal that forces Ukraine to cede land.

A dramatic day unfolds in Washington as UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and NATO’s new Secretary General Mark Rutte arrive at the White House ahead of a joint meeting with Donald Trump. The gathering, centered on Ukraine’s uncertain future, comes amid fierce Russian escalation on the battlefield and growing divisions in the West over strategy. With Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky already under pressure, European leaders are racing to project unity as Trump signals he will demand concessions to Moscow. The stakes are immense: the fate of Ukrainian territory, the credibility of NATO, and the balance of power in Europe hang in the balance. The arrival of these leaders sets the stage for a tense diplomatic showdown, one that could reshape the trajectory of the war — and the future of Western resolve against Russia.

Inside a peaceful Parisian park lies a powerful story of faith, exile, and identity. Every year, Tibetans gather at the Pagoda of Vincennes for the Sakya Monlam prayer—thousands of kilometers from their homeland. As tensions rise with China over the Dalai Lama’s successor, refugees like Tenzing and Lobsang share their fears, hopes, and ties to India—whom they call their “second homeland.” This is more than a spiritual gathering—it's a silent resistance for a forgotten people.

All eyes are on Washington as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrives at the White House for a dramatic summit with Donald Trump and European leaders. This moment goes beyond politics—Zelensky’s wardrobe itself has become a message to the world. Days ago, an American journalist mocked whether he even owned a suit, sparking laughter from Trump and Senator J.D. Vance. Now, the Ukrainian leader’s choice could define the future of the war. A formal suit may symbolize readiness to accept Trump’s controversial peace plan—ceding Crimea and parts of Donbas to Russia. His trademark olive-green attire, however, would signal fierce defiance, a vow that Ukraine will never surrender its land. With tensions between Washington, Kyiv, and Europe already at breaking point, even a simple outfit has turned into a diplomatic weapon. Will Zelensky bow to pressure—or double down on resistance? The answer could reshape alliances and the global balance of power.

Volodymyr Zelensky is back in D.C. at the White House ... and this time, he decided to wear a business-like suit instead of his usual military garb. The.. TMZ.com
The world held its breath as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky delivered his opening statement live from the White House, marking the most dramatic moment of his U.S. visit. Standing alongside Donald Trump and surrounded by Europe’s top leaders, Zelensky’s words carried the weight of a nation at war. With Russian bombs raining down in Donetsk and peace talks hanging by a thread, his address was more than just diplomatic—it was a direct plea for survival, sovereignty, and solidarity. The Ukrainian leader framed the war as a global battle for freedom, warning that concessions to Moscow would only embolden aggression. As Trump hinted at compromises with Putin and European leaders pressed for unity, Zelensky’s statement set the tone for one of the most consequential summits in years. The silence that followed in the White House was not just respect—it was recognition of history being written.

Zelensky defied President Trump’s diktat to “wear a suit” for their White House meeting. Instead, he arrived in his trademark military-style jacket—sparking mockery among U.S. residents and igniting a social media storm. While critics called it inappropriate for the Oval Office, supporters argue it was a symbol of defiance and resilience. The fashion clash has now become a new flashpoint in U.S.-Ukraine diplomacy.

On the eve of his Washington meeting with Donald Trump and European leaders, Volodymyr Zelensky condemned Russia for “demonstrative and cynical” strikes across Ukraine. Deadly attacks in Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, and Odesa killed civilians, including a toddler, and destroyed homes and energy facilities. Zelensky accused Vladimir Putin of deliberately escalating to sabotage peace efforts and pressure Ukraine. Calling for strong, NATO-style security guarantees, Zelensky urged world leaders not to reward Moscow’s aggression but to deliver “true security and dignified peace.”

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán delivered a striking endorsement of the Trump-Putin Alaska summit, declaring that “the world is a safer place today than it was yesterday.” Orbán praised the meeting as a long-overdue reset between the two biggest nuclear powers, accusing President Joe Biden of dismantling the framework of U.S.-Russia cooperation. The Hungarian leader said Trump and Putin had ended years of hostility and reopened the path to dialogue. His remarks were hailed by Moscow and welcomed by Trump allies, while Western critics warned Orbán was legitimizing Putin’s war agenda. Both Trump and Putin reportedly agreed that Biden’s approach had accelerated tensions instead of resolving them. The summit, which ended without a ceasefire deal in Ukraine, continues to send shockwaves across Europe. Orbán’s comments add fuel to an already divisive global debate over whether the Alaska meeting represents peace progress or dangerous appeasement.
