U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday that Russian President Vladimir Putin is open to European peacekeepers in Ukraine, as part of a ceasefire agreement. French President Emmanuel Macron said Europe is ready to provide security guarantees if a truce is reached.
U.S. President Donald Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron discussed efforts to negotiate a ceasefire in Ukraine during talks in the Oval Office. Trump said that Russian President Vladimir Putin is open to the idea of Europe sending peacekeepers to Ukraine.
Macron emphasized Europe's willingness to provide security guarantees, including peacekeepers to maintain peace once a truce is reached. He clarified that such troops would not be involved in combat or stationed along the front lines.
Trump noted that the United States is "very close" to finalizing a minerals revenue-sharing agreement with Ukraine. He hinted that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky might visit Washington soon to sign the deal.
Last week, Zelensky rejected U.S. demands for $500 billion in mineral wealth, arguing that the U.S. has not provided aid on that scale and that the deal lacks essential security guarantees.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is expected to meet Trump later this week to discuss the situation, as European leaders express concerns over Trump's approach and overtures to Moscow.
Macron warned that a poorly negotiated deal would weaken Ukraine’s position and signal vulnerability to adversaries like China and Iran.
