BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Thursday called on European leaders to apply an approach of "peace through strength" to confront the threat posed by Russia.
Zelenskiy's appeal comes a day after Donald Trump won another term in the White House, bringing uncertainty about Washington's future policy after he had criticized the scale of U.S. military and financial support for Kyiv in its war with Russia.
