European leaders held a second call afterwards to discuss the next steps in the Ukraine conflict, the spokesman said.

Trump spoke for more than an hour with Zelensky, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Nato secretary-general Mark Rutte and European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen, the spokesman said.

According to the Ukrainian presidency, Trump spoke first with Zelensky and then the other European leaders joined the call.

The White House has also confirmed the call.

After the summit, at which Trump and Putin did not agree on a path to end Russia’s invasion, the European leaders were holding their own telephone diplomacy session to debrief on the talks, the EU spokesman added.

There had been unease among European leaders over Trump’s outreach to Putin.
