Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is scheduled to meet with US President Donald Trump in Washington next week, following an effort by the Trump administration to revive diplomatic efforts aimed at ending Russia’s war against Ukraine. A White House official says Zelenskyy will travel to Washington for the meeting, which several outlets report will take place on Tuesday. The discussions are presented as part of the latest round of high-level engagement between the two leaders.
In addition to the planned Trump-Zelenskyy meeting, one report says Zelenskyy has spoken with US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner about prospects for renewed peace talks with Russia. The outlets frame the outreach as part of the administration’s push to explore or restart negotiations intended to bring an end to the conflict.
Across the reports, the central points remain that the meeting is planned in Washington, involves senior US and Ukrainian leadership, and is linked to efforts to restart or advance talks concerning a potential peace process.
