A dozen European defense ministers met with a video conference with the Ukrainian counterpart to coordinate the views before the US-Russian diplomatic offensive in order to end the war, from which their countries are excluded, AFP reports.

This meeting, which suvresidi the Estonian Minister Hanno Pujkur and French Sébastien Lecorno, has gathered Minister Lithuania, Latvia, Norway, Finland, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Poland. Ukrainian Minister of Defense Rustem Umarov and NATO representatives and the European Union participated.

The aim of this video conferencing, held on the third anniversary of the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine, approaching the vision of Europeans for permanent peace and related security guarantees, according to the French source of close discussions.

Europeans fear that US President Donald Trump will end the war under conditions favorable for Moscow and without giving security guarantees Kiev. They are looking for, for now without success, a place for the negotiating table. The French Head of Emmanuel Macrona was received by Donald Trump in Washington today, and in a few days he would receive the British Prime Minister Keira Starmer. Macron was called on Paris several chiefs of European governments last week to try to define a joint response.

Despite the consensus on Russian threats, Europe is still current discussions on the necessary answers, especially between those who are also against the distribution of the army in the Ukrainian territory to implement a possible fire break-up agreement.

More and more that many European countries, especially eastern, do not hide their concerns for their own safety in the event of withdrawals of all or part of 100,000 soldiers arranged in Europe.

“You can’t assume that the American presence will last forever,” said the American Defense Minister of Pete Hegset in mid-February.
