Then Zelensky was criticized in the US administration, in particular because he did not wear a suit. This time, the President of Ukraine also arrived in a traditional suit and without a tie – it had a black shirt and a black jacket.
First, a bilateral meeting between Ukrainian and American delegations will be held at the White House. Subsequently, there will be wider negotiations with the participation of leaders of Britain, France, Italy, Germany, Finland, the President of the European Commission and NATO Secretary General.
European leaders hope that their presence in the White House will be a powerful gesture of solidarity with Ukraine. They will be expected to discuss what security guarantees will be able to provide Ukraine in the event of hostilities.
Negotiations at the White House on Monday are following the summit of US and Russia leaders in Alaska on August 15, after which the US side believes that there was a real chance to conclude a peace agreement with the Russian Federation and end the war in Ukraine.
Recall:
- As it was reported, before arriving at the White House Zelensky and European leaders held a meeting at the Embassy of Ukraine. Following these negotiations, Zelensky stated that Putin should not expect that he would give up aggression, so the US and Europe have to have a joint pressure on him.
- Earlier on Monday, Zelensky held a meeting with Trump Special Representative Kellog in Washington.
- After meeting with Kelloga Zelensky said that Trump has strength to force Russia to peace.
