A meeting between Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Volodymyr Zelensky and European leaders? This is the idea presented by Emmanuel Macron, this Monday, August 18. From the White House, along with Donald Trump and other European leaders, including the leader of Ukraine, the French president recalled that Europe “has worked hard for many years to establish a robust and lasting peace.”
Emmanuel Macron judges that a trilateral meeting between Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Volodymyr Zelensky, regularly mentioned in recent days, is “important” and “the only solution to find an exit to this war.”
A trilateral “If everything is going well,” according to Donald Trump
But the Head of State goes further, believing that “he will surely have to do a quadrilateral” with the Europeans.
“Because when we talk about security guarantees, the question is that of the European continent as a whole,” argues the Elysée tenant on Monday.
A little earlier in the day, Donald Trump said that a “trilateral” meeting with Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky will be held “if everything goes well.” “And there will be a good possibility to end the war when we do it,” continued the president of the United States.
“We are going to find a lasting peace,” said the US president, adding that Washington “will be involved” in the future security of Ukraine.
The project of a meeting that involves Ukrainian and Russian presidents has been mentioned several times in recent days by the White House tenant. Before the Alaska Summit, where he met Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump had declared for such a “quickly.”
