Zelenskyy warns Trump's European security plan is dangerous while Russia fights on
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has expressed skepticism about US President Donald Trump's proposed "big deal" for a new European security order, calling it potentially dangerous while Russia continues its war. Zelenskyy told CNN that discussions must first focus on ending the war, followed by security guarantees for Ukraine, before any broader European security architecture can be considered. He warned that Russia wants to start with the new security structure and has shown no signs of backing down. Trump has been promoting the plan since Thursday, with his envoy Jared Kushner outlining a framework based on communication and military transparency. Talks between Ukrainian and Russian representatives are scheduled for next week in Abu Dhabi, while Zelenskyy accused Russia of intensifying attacks to weaken Kyiv's negotiating position.
