Europe Expresses Concern Over Exclusion from U.S.-Led Ukraine Peace Talks

European allies report limited influence in American-led negotiations to end the war in Ukraine. Officials from the European Union and Britain say they are working to protect both Ukrainian and European interests. However, the United States is largely conducting these diplomatic talks independently. Washington is keeping its European partners at a distance from the core negotiation process. This situation creates a delicate dynamic. While all parties share the goal of peace, the EU and UK now seek to ensure their strategic concerns are not overlooked.
