President Donald Trump announced that he was arranging a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, followed by a trilateral meeting.

After the historic meeting in Alaska between Trump and Putin, Zelensky traveled to the White House with French President Emmanuel Macron, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte. The meeting went far better than Zelensky’s February solo trip, featuring an hourslong discussion on a sustainable peace agreement to end the war in Ukraine.
