The move is being carried out in accordance with the directive of the political echelon, and as part of the IDF’s preparations to move the population from combat zones to the southern Gaza Strip for their protection.

This afternoon, I will welcome Zelenskyy in Brussels.

Together, we will participate in the Coalition of Willing VTC.

Great to have you here, dear Zelenskyy

We continue our cooperation to achieve a just peace that respects Ukraine & Europe's vital security interests.

With the Coalition of the Willing in Brussels today, and in the White House with POTUS tomorrow

Coordination meeting this morning with President Trump, President Zelensky, and my European partners following the meeting between President Trump and President Putin in Alaska.

At the conclusion of this meeting, we continued our discussions with my European counterparts. We are aligned in stating:

→ that it is essential to continue supporting Ukraine and to maintain pressure on Russia as long as its war of aggression continues and until a solid and lasting peace, respectful of Ukraine’s rights, has been established;

→ that any lasting peace must be accompanied by unwavering security guarantees. I welcome, in this regard, the readiness of the United States to contribute. We will work on this with them and with all our partners in the Coalition of the Willing, with whom we will meet again soon, to make concrete progress. It will also be essential to draw all the lessons from the past 30 years, in particular from Russia’s well-established tendency not to honor its own commitments.

We will continue to work closely with POTUS Donald Trump and President Zelenskyy to safeguard our interests in a spirit of unity and responsibility.
