Zelenskyy meets EU leaders in Brussels as Ukraine shifts focus from US
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is in Brussels for an EU summit as Washington's support for Kyiv faces uncertainty, marking a pivotal moment for European security relations. Zelenskyy will hold his first formal bilateral talks with Hungary's new Prime Minister Péter Magyar, signaling a potential reset in Kyiv-Budapest relations following Viktor Orbán's departure. EU leaders also failed to agree on the budget during extended evening sessions. Ukraine is reportedly considering reducing its dependence on American military technology, while questions remain over whether Europe can provide security guarantees without US involvement. Discussions also touched on confronting Washington over ICC attacks and using frozen Russian assets.
