🇺🇦🇪🇺🇬🇧 “We are developing measures that will allow us to use the full value of Russia’s frozen sovereign assets to provide Ukraine with the necessary resources,” the European leaders said in a joint statement.

“We strongly support President Trump’s position that the fighting must cease immediately and that the current line of contact must become the starting point for negotiations. We remain committed to the principle that international borders cannot be changed by force.

Russia’s delaying tactics have repeatedly proven that only Ukraine is serious about peace. We all see Putin continue to choose the path of violence and destruction.

Therefore, we are making it clear: Ukraine must be in the strongest possible position — before, during, and after any ceasefire. We must increase pressure on the Russian economy and its defense industry until Putin is ready for peace.

Leaders will meet later this week in the framework of the European Council and in the format of the Coalition of the Willing to discuss further steps in this work and to strengthen support for Ukraine."
