Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet US President Donald Trump in the coming days in a bid to push forward peace talks with Russia, raising hopes of a breakthrough in one of Europe's longest-running conflicts.
The announcement comes as Kyiv's US-backed peace proposal is being reviewed by Moscow, with both sides signaling cautious engagement amid ongoing hostilities. Zelensky described recent discussions with Trump's special envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, as "very good" and suggested that the upcoming summit could help secure significant progress before the New Year.
