Europe Today: Trump claims Ukraine-Russia deal to end the war could be close

Donald Trump has reportedly expressed optimism on Monday that a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia could be reached in the near future, as he spoke to the United Nations. The US President's comments come after a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in New York. The potential deal aims to bring an end to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, which has been a source of tension between the two nations for years.

Meanwhile, in Europe, the EU has faced a sanctions saga that resulted in the removal of two Russian businessmen from the EU's blacklist list. The decision has caused significant diplomatic fallout in Brussels, with Latvia's Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs speaking exclusively to Euronews about the developments. The EU's efforts to combat the sanctions have put pressure on Russia to reconsider its actions in Ukraine.

On a separate note, the US, Denmark, and Greenland have signed a deal to strengthen Arctic security, a move that ends a year-long period of tensions between the US and its Nordic allies. The US President Donald Trump, who was at the center of the conflict, has expressed his dissatisfaction with the agreement, stating that he threatened to take the world's largest island by force if necessary. The deal was signed following a meeting between the leaders of the three nations.

Morocco has also been making headlines today, with the country heading to the polls in legislative elections that come at a critical moment for the nation. These elections will determine the future direction of the country and its political landscape. Euronews anchors Méabh Mc Mahon and Stefan Grobe are live on TV and the website, as well as digital platforms, to bring viewers the latest updates and analysis on this story.
