00:00Europe is standing firm, but Germany just hit the brakes on a U.S. peace plan for Ukraine.

00:05Why? Let's break it down.

00:07German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz just voiced serious doubts about the U.S.-backed peace

00:12proposal for Ukraine. After a high-stakes meeting in London with Zelensky, Macron, and Starmer,

00:17Mertz said he's skeptical of what he's seeing from Washington. He didn't name specifics,

00:22but hinted that some details don't sit right with Europe's vision for peace.

00:27Meanwhile, Macron is staying confident. He says Europe has the tools, the weapons,

00:32the funding, and the will to support Ukraine and pressure Russia.

00:36But behind the scenes, there's tension. A leaked U.S.-Russia draft deal reportedly forces Ukraine

00:41to give up the entire Donbass region. That's a red line for many in Europe, and likely for Zelensky,

00:46too. Especially with Trump criticizing Zelensky, saying he's not ready to sign the proposal.

00:51With no breakthrough yet, and the U.S., Europe, and Ukraine not fully aligned. The real battle

00:57may now be at the negotiation table. Because how this war ends could reshape Europe forever.
