EU seeks a military revival under pressure from Putin, Trump

Quick Summary:

European officials are working on a major new package to ramp up defense spending and support Kyiv as President Donald Trump pushes for a quick end to the war in Ukraine.

Asked about NBC News reporting that the Trump administration would convene separate meetings with Russia and Ukraine before all sides come to the negotiating table together, a White House official said that the Trump team has consistently engaged with its Ukrainian counterparts, citing high-level meetings in Munich and Kyiv over the past week.

The Trump administration has told European officials that it wants to secure a ceasefire in Ukraine by Easter, according to people briefed on the conversations.
