Meeting of European leaders in Paris
On February 17, French President Emmanuel Macron gathered leaders of several European countries in Paris for an "emergency summit" to discuss European security issues. One of the main reasons for the meeting was the policy of newly elected US President Donald Trump.

The following day, Macron held talks with both Zelenskyy and Trump.
Additionally, it became known that France intended to hold a new summit on Ukraine and European security, which took place today, February 19.
