In Brussels, Zelensky seeks to mobilize European support in the face of American pressure

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is seeking increased support from his European allies during the EU summit in Brussels on Friday, after Kiev announced renewed attacks on Russian refineries following US President Donald Trump's announcement of a partial ceasefire involving energy facilities. On Thursday, Trump described the renewed strikes as "shameful" at a time when Ukraine is facing an escalation in Russian attacks, amid concerns about continued American support for Kiev.
