Trump’s top officials to hold talks on ending Ukraine war with European allies
Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff and top diplomat Marco Rubio will hold talks with European counterparts in Paris later on Thursday to discuss efforts to end the war in Ukraine.
Ukraine’s foreign minister and defence minister have arrived in the French capital to take part in the discussions.
The talks, hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron, form the highest level of transatlantic engagement about the war since February.
European diplomats have said they will urge the US to put more pressure on Russia to agree an unconditional ceasefire.
“We want the US to use a bit more stick,” one official said.
