European leaders have strongly backed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy following his heated Oval Office encounter with Donald Trump. Many expressed concern over Trump’s stance, emphasizing continued support for Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.
EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen praised Zelenskyy’s resilience, while French President Emmanuel Macron reaffirmed that aiding Ukraine remains the right course of action. German officials criticized Trump’s approach, calling for Europe to take greater leadership. Meanwhile, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer met Zelenskyy in London, reiterating Britain’s commitment.
However, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán aligned with Trump, advocating for immediate peace talks with Russia. The clash has intensified debates over Europe’s role in the conflict and the future of Western support for Ukraine.
