Just after noon, European leaders including Macron, Starmer, von der Leyen, Rutte, and Meloni began arriving one by one at the White House. According to the White House schedule, Trump will first meet with Zelensky at 1:15 p.m. before greeting the European leaders, followed by a multilateral meeting with all parties at 3:00 p.m.

President Trump is expected to press Ukraine to make concessions to end the war. President Volodymyr Zelensky will likely ask what, if anything, Russia is offering in return.
