European Leaders Back Zelensky After Trump Calls For New Ukrainian President. European leaders have reaffirmed their support for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky after U.S. President Donald Trump said Ukraine needed a new leader. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said nobody could break Ukraine or Zelensky in their fight against Russian aggression and pledged European solidarity. German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul also backed Zelensky while calling for greater pressure on Moscow to return to peace talks. Trump said it was "time for Ukraine to get a new president" after criticising Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil facilities. Zelensky responded that Ukraine would stop attacking Russian oil refineries if Russia stopped targeting Ukrainian energy infrastructure. British Defence Secretary Wes Streeting said the UK stood with Zelensky and stressed that Ukrainians alone should decide who leads their country. Streeting said Russian President Vladimir Putin started the war and could end it, while Britain would seek to improve relations between Kyiv and Washington. British Prime Minister Andy Burnham also spoke with Zelensky and reiterated Britain's "complete solidarity", while pledging to strengthen sanctions.
