💨 Abstract

European leaders are set to support Ukraine as it faces U.S. pressure to accept a peace deal with Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with U.S. envoys in Berlin to discuss ending the nearly four-year war. Key issues include control of the Donetsk region and Ukraine's NATO aspirations. Zelenskyy is willing to forgo NATO membership if Western nations provide security guarantees. Russian President Vladimir Putin demands Ukraine withdraw from Donetsk and renounce NATO bids.
