For Peace in Ukraine, Trump Urges Europe to Stop Purchasing Russian Oil
President Donald Trump joined a call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and other European leaders, where Trump urged European nations to stop purchasing Russian oil.
French President Emmanuel Macron and other European leaders invited the president into their “Coalition of the Willing” meeting, a White House official told The Daily Signal.
“President Trump emphasized that Europe must stop purchasing Russian oil that is funding the war—as Russia received €1.1 billion [$1,280,565,000] in fuel sales from the [European Union] in one year,” the official said in a statement. “The president also emphasized that European leaders must place economic pressure on China for funding Russia’s war efforts.”
Macron and Zelenskyy met in France, while roughly 20 other leaders joined the meeting virtually to discuss how to end the war in Ukraine.
The meeting also included British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, among others.
