European leaders arrived at the White House for high-stakes talks on the Russia-Ukraine war. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte was the first to arrive, followed by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and later prime ministers from the UK, Italy, and Finland. The leaders were seen greeting each other at the South Lawn entrance, though U.S. President Donald Trump was notably absent during their arrival—a break from his usual practice of welcoming visiting leaders. The meeting comes just days after Trump’s summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska, where both sides discussed the Ukraine war but offered no ceasefire timeline. Watch
