Rutte, Zelensky to attend Ukraine 'Coalition of the Willing' meeting after NATO summit, Elysee say
The Elysee said that planning was still underway for security guarantees for when a ceasefire is reached between Ukraine and Russia
Assessment
The meeting signals a shift from the NATO summit floor to a smaller, more agile forum focused on post-ceasefire planning. The fact that security guarantees are still being worked out suggests the coalition is preparing concrete mechanisms rather than relying on broader alliance commitments. Timing will be key: if a ceasefire framework emerges, this group's plans will face an immediate stress test.
