Trump is still a game changer
Asked whether Trump is still a game changer in the war, Zelenskyy replied:
"He wants to stop the war. And he mostly spoke about it. He said he would do everything to end the war," the president said.
Zelenskyy added that the most important step Trump could take would be to organize a trilateral meeting. That is where all the sensitive issues could be discussed by the three leaders.
Zelenskyy ready to meet with Putin
Zelenskyy also said he was ready to meet with Putin at any time.
"If you want to end a war, you end it. If you want to do that through dialogue, it means that you need to meet and have a dialogue. Love, don't love, hate each other or not, enemies — everything is understandable. If you want to end a war, sit and speak," the president said.
Earlier, RBC-Ukraine reported that Zelenskyy said Ukraine was ready for an energy ceasefire with Russia. Kyiv would refrain from striking Russian energy facilities if Moscow stopped attacking Ukraine's energy infrastructure.
It was also reported that Zelenskyy met with Trump in New York on September 22. The talks took place on the sidelines of the 81st session of the UN General Assembly.
Zelenskyy noted that there were no calls today for Ukraine to unilaterally stop strikes on Russia.
In addition, Zelenskyy expressed hope that the full-scale war against Russia would end by winter, noting that US leader Donald Trump could help achieve this.
