Trump says he has begun arrangements for face-to-face meeting between Putin and Ukraine’s Zelenskyy

  • President Donald Trump met on Monday at the White House with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and European leaders to discuss security and peace efforts.
  • The talks occurred amid a nearly four-year war that began after Russia annexed Crimea in 2014 and invaded Ukraine in 2022, delaying scheduled elections due to martial law.
  • During the meeting, Trump announced he called Putin to begin arranging a face-to-face meeting between Putin and Zelenskyy, aimed at ending the conflict and hashing out a ceasefire and territorial issues.
  • Trump stated that during the meeting, plans were made for European nations to offer security assurances to Ukraine in collaboration with the United States, a development NATO Secretary-General Rutte described as a significant breakthrough.
  • The talks laid groundwork for a trilateral meeting including Trump, Putin, and Zelenskyy, signaling possible progress but with unresolved challenges, as Russia rejected NATO peacekeepers and Trump stopped short of U.S. troop commitments.
