Zelensky to Meet Trump After Alaska Summit Ends Without Deal

The summit in Alaska between U.S. and Russian leaders has ended, but there was no agreement. Now, Ukraine's President Zelensky will meet with President Trump in Washington D.C. on Monday. This meeting follows a conversation between Zelensky and Trump after the summit concluded.

After three hours of talks, President Trump said, "We didn't get there." He noted that there were still "sizable differences" on important issues with Russia.

President Zelensky said he had a "long and

substantive" conversation with President Trump that lasted an hour and a half during Trump's flight back to Washington. Following this, Zelensky agreed to visit the White House on Monday.

According to reports, European leaders also joined the call with Zelensky for another half an hour. Zelensky said Ukraine is ready to work hard for peace. He talked with Trump about the Alaska summit, but there weren't many specific details.

Zelensky emphasized the need for a three-way meeting between Russia, the U.S., and Ukraine. He also stressed the importance of including European leaders in future discussions.

Why This Matters: Zelensky has always felt it was important for Ukraine to be at the table in discussions about the war.

People in Ukraine were relieved that no major agreement was made without their involvement. However, there's still skepticism because the war continues. Drone attacks are still happening.

Ukrainians were uneasy about the platform given to President Putin.

There hasn't been much reaction from Europe, but Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban commented. Orban said that the world is safer now than it was due to the end of cooperation between the two largest nuclear powers.

What Happens Next? Zelensky's trip to Washington will be crucial to see what steps are taken next to try to end the war.

The meeting between Zelensky and Trump is important.

It shows that discussions about the war in Ukraine are still happening. While the Alaska summit didn't produce a deal, Zelensky's visit to Washington offers a chance to find a path toward peace.

While the Alaska summit didn't result in an agreement, the upcoming meeting between Zelensky and Trump is a chance to make progress toward ending the war. The world is watching to see what comes next.
