Trump: Zelensky ‘Couldn’t Have Been Nicer’ During Meeting
- President Donald Trump met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on June 25 at the NATO summit in The Hague for their first face-to-face meeting since April.
- The meeting occurred amid Russia's ongoing conflict with Ukraine, triggered by its February 2022 invasion, and follows Trump's pledge in 2024 to quickly end the war.
- During a Wednesday news conference, Trump described negotiations as more difficult than expected, noted challenges with both Putin and Zelensky, and expressed willingness to supply Ukraine with Patriot missiles.
- Trump said Patriots are “very effective, 100% effective,” and Zelensky posted that their talks were substantive, covering ceasefire and peace; Trump also acknowledged Russia's aggression and Europe's security role.
- Their meeting and the NATO summit outcomes suggest continued Western military support for Ukraine, increased defense spending by allies, and ongoing difficulty resolving the war despite diplomatic efforts.
