Ukraine's Zelenskiy heads to Paris with possible Trump talks in mind
7/12/2024 6:20
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy will travel to Paris to attend the re-opening of Notre-Dame cathedral on Saturday, and could use the trip to hold
talks with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, two diplomatic sources said.
There were efforts to arrange the meeting between Zelenskiy and Trump, who is also attending the celebrations, the two sources said. The plans would probably not come together until the last minute and any talks would be discreet, they added.
A Ukrainian delegation met on Wednesday with senior Trump aides, two sources familiar with the meeting said, as Ukraine seeks support from the incoming U.S. team for its war to repel Russia's invasion.
