In a private May 19 call with EU leaders, Donald Trump revealed that Vladimir Putin doesn’t plan to end the Ukraine war—because he believes he's winning. This follows a confidential conversation between Trump and Putin just a day earlier. While Trump had once claimed Putin sought peace, this marked his first admission that Russia intends to prolong the conflict. Trump backed off earlier threats of sanctions, telling leaders, “This isn’t my war.” EU officials now worry U.S. support for Ukraine may fade, leaving Europe to lead the response alone.

NATO faces internal cracks as leaders clash over defense spending amid fresh Russian threats. Polish PM Donald Tusk revealed his forces intercepted a Russian “shadow fleet” near undersea cables in the Baltic Sea—seen as hybrid warfare. Lithuania’s defense minister Dovile Shakalene criticized NATO’s dysfunction, backing Donald Trump’s call for 5% defense spending. She slammed Western European nations for ignoring Eastern security concerns. As Russia’s activity intensifies, NATO unity is under stress, raising fears of permanent confrontation in the Baltic region.

EU-AU ministers vow to strengthen partnership on peace, and security amid geopolitical volatility
The last time that foreign ministers from both continents met, Russia had not invaded its neighbour Ukraine, the war in Sudan had not begun, and France, a leading member of the 27-nation EU bloc, had not lost its influence in Africa's Sahel region, where its military was forced out last year.
