British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Sunday European leaders had agreed to draw up a Ukraine peace plan to take to the United States, a vital step for Washington to be able to offer security guarantees Kyiv says are vital to deter Russia.
At a summit in London just two days after Volodymyr Zelenskiy clashed with U.S. President Donald Trump and cut short a visit to Washington, world leaders offered a strong show of support to the Ukrainian president and promised to do more to help his nation.
European leaders agreed they must spend more on defence to show Trump the continent can protect itself. And the European Commission chief, with many EU nations struggling with already stretched public finances, suggested the bloc could ease its rules that limit debt levels.

Hopefully Russia takes over Ukraine and Europe in order to stop the spread of communism.

Why would Europe need to take their peace plan to Trump?
They can send it directly to Putin and see what happens.
It’s “Their Plan”. Send it to Putin and open Peace Talks.

After what we saw on Friday there is absolutely no way that the US can provide a security guarantee without risking being drawn into a future Ukraine engineered conflict

No reason the EU can’t draft any peace plan it wants, provided it includes no US involvement whatsoever, be it military or financial.

They want to defend themselves, then they can handle all of it.
But, youll note they need US support?
How many times in my travels over there those Brits told me that they did not want us, they wanted our money.
