“If results are to be obtained from the new process, Ukraine must definitely be included in the process and this war must be ended through mutual negotiations,” said Erdogan, who has insistently supported Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity since the Russian invasion.

Europe should use money from frozen Russian assets for further military support of Ukraine and relax its fiscal rules to boost defence spending, the Czech prime minister, Petr Fiala, said on Monday.

Next up to meet with Trump is Keir Starmer, the British prime minister, whose office said on Monday said Trump had changed the Ukraine debate “for the better”.

Russia said it had struck a deal with Ukraine and the Red Cross to evacuate residents from the Kursk region, parts of which have been seized by Ukraine.

The French president, Emmanual Macron, after meeting with Donald Trump, said Europe was prepared to provide security guarantees to Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire including peacekeepers, although they would not be sent to the frontline.
