European Leaders Seek Financial Clarification on 15-Year Ukraine Reconstruction Fund

Following his successful summit with President Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has arrived in Paris to meet with European Union leaders. While the Florida Framework provides security guarantees, European nations are seeking clarity on their specific financial commitments to the proposed $500 billion reconstruction fund. Zelenskyy is expected to argue that a “neutral Ukraine” can only survive if it is economically integrated with Europe, a key point of the remaining 5% of the peace negotiations.
