- Volodymyr Zelenskyy, speaking after an EU summit in Belgium on Oct 16, warned that Russia's ambitions extend beyond eastern Ukraine and that its drone attacks now threaten NATO.
- Zelenskyy took a jibe at Donald Trump after Trump said Zelenskyy is harder to deal with than Putin.
Why it matters: By framing Russian drone attacks as a direct NATO threat rather than a bilateral Ukraine issue, Zelenskyy is pushing EU leaders to treat the war as a continental security problem, potentially reshaping funding and defense debates at the summit. The Trump jab adds personal friction to US-Ukraine coordination as the EU weighs its next financial commitments.
