Europeans back Zelenskyy after Trump calls for new Ukrainian leader
European politicians have voiced support for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy after US President Donald Trump called for a new leader in Ukraine. The material available gives no further detail on the specific statements.
European politicians are backing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy after US President Donald Trump called for Ukraine to have a new leader, according to Politico Europe. The question matters because Ukraine is still fighting Russia's invasion, and Washington and European capitals now appear to differ on the country's political leadership.
The source material available to the newsroom does not say who expressed support or in what words, nor how Trump phrased his remarks. Those details are therefore not included here.
