As Donald Trump is about to meet one-on-one with Vladimir Putin on Friday, Ukraine’s president together with the European leaders is trying to convince his US counterpart that the future of Russia’s all-out war against Ukraine cannot be discussed without Kyiv in the room.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy has come to Berlin on Wednesday to join German Chancellor Merz for video calls in a last-minute bid to ensure the US president understands what is at stake for Ukraine and the continent.
Although Trump stated that his ultimate goal is to bring Zelenskyy and Putin to the negotiating table, this will not happen in two days’ time, when the US and Russian leaders are to meet in Alaska.
Ukraine’s president is not scheduled to participate in the Alaska summit, nor are the European leaders.
