Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and several other European leaders are set to arrive at the White House for talks with U.S. President Donald Trump.
Among those heading to Washington for the highly anticipated meeting is Germany’s Chancellor Friedrich Merz, following up on Trump’s Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin last week. Ahead of today’s talks, Trump took to social media, saying that Zelenskyy "can end the war almost immediately" if he wants to. This statement has increased the pressure on Zelenskyy to make concessions in return for peace.
