French ​President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister ‌Andy Burnham and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz will co-chair a meeting of the so-called Coalition ​of the Willing group of ​pro-Ukrainian countries on Monday.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr ⁠Zelenskiy will be at the meeting ​in Kyiv, which will be attended both ​in person and remotely, Macron's office said on Friday, without specifying who will be there ​in person. The Ukrainian capital has ​come under heavy bombardment recently, and Zelenskiy has pleaded with ‌his ⁠allies to do more to help his country.

European Council President Antonio Costa will attend the meeting in person and ​NATO Deputy ​Secretary ⁠General Radmila Shekerinska will participate remotely, NATO and the EU ​said in separate statements.

"The leaders ​will ⁠reiterate their determination to strengthen their support for Ukraine so that it can ⁠defend ​itself against Russian aggression," ​Macron's office said in a statement.
