President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy and a number of European leaders will arrive in Washington. Never before have there been so many of them at the same time, according to Trump’s post on Truth Social.

"Big day at the White House tomorrow. Never had so many European leaders at one time. My great honor to host them!!! President DJT," Trump wrote.

Visit to Washington

After the Coalition of the Willing summit in Brussels, President Zelenskyy and a delegation of European leaders headed to the US for a meeting with Trump.

According to the schedule published by Roll Call, on August 18, Trump will first hold a bilateral meeting with Zelenskyy. After that, a multilateral meeting with EU leaders will take place.

Zelenskyy has already arrived in Washington and promised to achieve lasting peace and force Russia to stop the war.

President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, French President Emmanuel Macron, and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, as well as Finnish President Alexander Stubb, all announced their intentions to come to Washington.

European leaders are expected to support Zelenskyy during his talks with Trump. And above all, to prevent a repeat of their infamous meeting in the Oval Office, which escalated into a loud quarrel.

According to Bloomberg, Trump intends to reach a quick peace agreement, and he will pressure Ukraine.
