European leaders say this is an important time in the war. They are working together to help Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky traveled to London and Brussels this week to meet important allies. He wants to make their support stronger.
The meetings happened because peace talks with the United States have stopped. The main problem is about land. The US has a peace plan. Last week, Ukrainian officials talked about this plan in Florida. The plan may ask Ukraine to leave some eastern land that Russia controls. Ukraine does not want to give any land to Russia. President Zelensky says they made a shorter plan with 20 points for the US. He said, "The Americans want a compromise. But the land is a complex issue."
European countries want to show they support Ukraine. They plan to send more military and money help. This will make Ukraine stronger in the war and in talks. Russia sees these discussions. A Russian spokesman said the US ideas are now closer to Russia's ideas. This makes the situation more difficult.
Now, the peace process is stuck. President Zelensky's trips are to keep his allies united and find a good peace.
