Top US officials have held face-to-face talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the capital, Kyiv – the first official meeting since Russia invaded the country in late February – with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken saying Moscow is failing in its war aims.
“In terms of Russia’s war aims, Russia has already failed and Ukraine has already succeeded,” Blinken told a news briefing after he and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin held talks with Zelenskyy that lasted for nearly three hours.
