Ukraine war briefing: Trump says he will ‘probably’ meet Zelenskiy in US next week
GuardianSEP 3 2024
Trump showed his diplomatic side by agreeing to meet with Zelenskyy despite the Ukrainian president's criticisms of the former US president. Trump's relationship with Putin will help get the two sides to the bargaining table. No one has yet found a solution to this crisis, so it'd be wise for Zelenskyy to follow Trump's path to lasting peace in the region.
Personal history with Trump should tell Zelenskyy to be wary of any promises. It was Trump's ethically murky call with Zelenskyy that got the former president impeached, and Trump has been vocal on the campaign trail about his skepticism over continuing to support Ukraine.
