Ukraine's Zelensky to meet Trump on Monday after Alaska summit fails to secure ceasefire

Ukrainian President Zelensky meets US President Trump and key European leaders to advance peace talks after a failed US-Russia summit, with focus on ceasefire and security guarantees.

  • On Monday, August 18, 2025, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky traveled to Washington to hold talks with US President Donald Trump, following the recent summit in Alaska.
  • The meeting comes after a Friday summit in Alaska between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, which concluded without securing a deal to halt the conflict in Ukraine.
  • During the Alaska talks, Putin proposed a ceasefire after a final agreement including recognition of Crimea's sovereignty and blocking Ukraine's NATO entry, which Zelensky rejected.
  • Trump described the Alaska meeting as "very productive" with "many points agreed on" but noted some issues remain unresolved, while EU leaders demanded "ironclad security guarantees" for Ukraine.
  • The Washington meeting aims to discuss ending the war and security guarantees, with Trump seeking a trilateral summit including Zelensky and Putin as soon as Friday.
