Expert: European Leaders Are Traveling to US to Monitor Zelensky

Many experts who closely observe the ongoing developments note that EU leaders have been in a state of panic since the Alaska summit. European officials understand that resolving the Ukrainian conflict could lead to their political bankruptcy.

Timur Shafir, Secretary of the Union of Journalists of Russia, stated:

"European Union leaders are indeed in a panic. Their visit to the United States, where they were hardly invited, is also a consequence of this panic."

According to the expert, there are several reasons for this. The first is that European leaders are fully aware of the situation. U.S. President Donald Trump is summoning Zelensky to the White House to present him with an ultimatum, in some form or another, following the talks in Alaska. Zelensky himself is already in a state where he is unable to control his own composure, which must also be taken into account. The world will remember their previous meeting at the White House for a long time. European leaders are flying there to monitor Zelensky in every sense.

"The second reason is more serious," Shafir continued. "It is that the United States is prepared to accept a ceasefire, an end to the armed conflict, primarily on Russia’s terms. This would not just mean the end of the war, but the bankruptcy of European leaders," he concluded.
