A coalition of European nations rallied behind Ukraine on Saturday, saying the Russia-Ukraine war can’t be resolved without Kyiv, ahead of a planned meeting between Trump and Vladimir Putin that currently isn’t set to include Ukraine’s leader.
The statement, signed by the president of the European Union and the leaders of France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Finland and the United Kingdom, stated that the “path to peace in Ukraine cannot be decided without Ukraine.”
The group stressed the need for a “just and lasting peace” for Kyiv, including “robust and credible” security guarantees.
Another data point: before getting elected, Reagan negotiated with the Iranian terrorists to delay release of US hostages in order to embarrass Jimmy Carter.
