Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet with President Trump at the White House on Monday following Trump’s summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska. Zelensky and European leaders discussed the best way to end the war between Russia and Ukraine, focusing on a Peace Agreement rather than a Ceasefire Agreement. Zelensky will visit the Oval Office in Washington, D.C., and if all goes well, a meeting with Putin will be scheduled. Trump expressed his support for a trilateral meeting between the three world leaders, stating that America’s strength has an impact on the development of the situation. Trump’s summit with Putin in Alaska brought progress, but no agreement on a ceasefire was made. Zelensky’s visit marks the first time since the Oval Office spat earlier this year, where Trump and Vice President Vance criticized Zelensky for not expressing gratitude for U.S. support. Trump has expressed frustration with Putin and his ongoing attacks on Ukrainian cities, threatening severe consequences if a deal is not reached soon.
