Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Donald Trump in New York on Friday in an effort to secure US support against Russia and Vladimir Putin. Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of stopping the war in Ukraine and ensuring that Putin does not emerge victorious. With the US election approaching, Zelenskyy stressed the need to strengthen Ukraine before November and expressed hope that the United States will continue to provide strong support.
Trump has previously suggested he could end the conflict quickly if elected, but many fear his approach could require Ukraine to give up territory. Zelenskyy has also met with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to discuss ongoing support and rally Western allies against Russia. In a recent interview, Zelenskyy criticized Trump for oversimplifying the conflict and suggested his running mate, JD Vance, advocated for Ukraine to make sacrifices.
Despite some criticisms from both sides, Trump described his meeting with Zelenskyy as great and expressed confidence that he could end the war with Russia and Ukraine quickly if elected. As Zelenskyy continues to seek support from key world leaders, including meeting with Biden and Harris, the stakes remain high in the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
