European leaders will join forces with Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as he prepares for a pivotal meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump, according to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

The gathering, slated for Monday, seems aimed at helping Zelenskyy avoid another tense encounter like the one in February and to signal Europe's steadfast support for Ukraine.

The presence of European leaders could ease concerns about Zelenskyy being pressured into a peace deal proposed by Trump with Russia. Von der Leyen announced on X that she will join the meeting on Zelenskyy's request.
