Trump meets Zelensky, readies Putin summit
The Freeman
|October 18, 2025
Washington, United States --- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky meets Donald Trump at the White House on Friday, seeking US- made Tomahawk missiles even as the US president readies for a fresh summit with Russia's Vladimir Putin.
-
Zelensky will be making his third trip to Washington since Trump returned to office, following a disastrous televised shouting match in February and a makeup meeting in August, as the US leader's stance on the war blows hot and cold.
Trump's latest pivot came on the eve of Zelensky's visit. He announced that he would be meeting Putin in Budapest, in a fresh bid to reach a peace deal and end Moscow's invasion of Ukraine launched in 2022.
Ukraine had hoped Zelensky's trip would be more about adding to the pressure on Putin, especially by getting American-made long-range Tomahawk cruise missiles that can strike deep into Russia.
But Trump, who once said he could end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours, appears set on pursuing a new diplomatic breakthrough to follow the Gaza ceasefire deal that he brokered last week.
