On August 9, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called a meeting of security advisers in Britain "constructive," emphasizing that Ukraine’s concerns were heard and risks acknowledged. Officials from the U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Italy, Finland, and Poland attended, aiming to align strategies toward achieving a ceasefire in Ukraine. Zelenskyy stressed that any peace plan must include Ukraine as an equal partner. Meanwhile, European leaders presented their own peace proposals to the U.S., reiterating that peace talks must begin with a ceasefire and cannot occur without Ukraine’s involvement. The discussions come ahead of a planned August 15 summit in Alaska between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Trump stated the parties, including Zelenskyy, were close to a deal to end the three-and-a-half-year conflict. A joint statement from European leaders supported a diplomatic approach and insisted that the current front line should be the basis for any negotiations.
