They pledged to assemble a European \u201ccoalition of the willing\u201d to develop a plan for ending Ukraine\u2019s war with Russia, which they hope could win the backing of a skeptical Mr. Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Gathering in London at the invitation of Prime Minister Keir Starmer of Britain, the leaders vowed to bolster support for Ukraine. But they also expressed hope that Mr. Zelensky and Mr. Trump could repair their breach, underscoring Europe\u2019s reluctance to cast off a trans-Atlantic alliance that has kept the peace for 80 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to bridge this,\u201d Mr. Starmer said on Sunday to the BBC before the leaders began arriving at Lancaster House, near Buckingham Palace. \u201cWe have to find a way where we can all work together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Starmer said he believed that despite Mr. Trump\u2019s anger toward Mr. Zelensky in the Oval Office on Friday, the president was committed to a lasting peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia. He said Britain and France, working with other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/02\/world\/europe\/ukraine-trump.html?searchResultPosition=23\" title>European countries<\/a>, would develop their own plan with Mr. Zelensky.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<p>Details of the plan were sketchy, but Mr. Starmer suggested that the Europeans could use it as a basis to persuade Mr. Trump to commit to American security guarantees. Britain and France have already pledged to contribute troops to a peacekeeping force and are trying to enlist other countries across Europe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we\u2019ve got a step in the right direction,\u201d Mr. Starmer said, though he added that \u201cthis is a moment of real fragility in Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<div id=\"optimistic-truncator-a11y\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<hr>\n<p>Thank you for your patience while we verify access.
