European leaders will visit the US this week to discuss ending the Ukraine war, according to Donald Trump, who also plans to speak with Putin soon. Trump indicated a second phase of sanctions against Russia is imminent, a move welcomed by Ukrainian President Zelensky, who urged Europe to halt Russian energy purchases. This follows Russia's largest aerial attack yet on Ukraine. The US is seeking greater EU support for secondary tariffs on countries buying Russian oil, aiming to cripple the Russian economy and force Putin to negotiate.
