Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that the Ukrainian delegation will hold another round of talks with European leaders following a meeting with Donald Trump, according to a post on the president’s Telegram channel.
Zelenskyy said that earlier today, he and the Ukrainian delegation spoke with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and European leaders. The discussions focused on the diplomatic track and its priorities, and another set of negotiations is expected after the conversation with Trump.
“Ukraine values all the support. Tomorrow, after the meeting with President Trump, we will continue the dialogue. Strong positions are needed both on the battlefield and in diplomacy so that Putin cannot manipulate the situation or avoid a real and just end to the war. The world has enough strength to guarantee security and peace. Thank you,” the president concluded.
