A group of European leaders joined President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and President Donald Trump for critical talks at the White House in hopes of bringing an end to Russia's war on Ukraine.

Monday’s hastily assembled meeting comes after Trump met with Russian President Vladimir Putin and has said that the onus is now on Zelenskyy to agree to concessions that he said could end the war.

The European group was left out of Friday’s summit, and they are looking to safeguard Ukraine and the continent from any widening aggression from Moscow.
