All attention will turn to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s planned visit to the White House on Monday after Trump’s summit in Alaska with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

But Zelensky won’t be lonely—a host of European leaders are now coming to tag along. Here’s who has been announced so far:

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz: Merz’s office announced that he intends to talk about the current status of peace efforts in Ukraine with the other leaders and emphasize Germany’s interest in swiftly reaching a peace treaty.

French President Emmanuel Macron: The Elysee Palace stated that Macron aims to continue working on improving coordination between European countries and the United States, with the goal of establishing a fair and enduring peace that safeguards Ukraine’s key interests and enhances Europe’s security.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni: Meloni will also be travelling to Washington with her European counterparts for the talks.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen: Von der Leyen confirmed in a post on X that she will attend the talks at the request of Zelensky.

Finland President Alexander Stubb: Stubb’s office said he will “participate in a meeting on peace in Ukraine,” also in a post on X.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte: The NATO chief will join Zelensky and European leaders for the talks with Trump.

The irony of all these European leaders gathering to discuss defending Ukraine’s sovereignty while their own borders face challenges from illegal migrants. pic.twitter.com/LAkLUnXtw1
