Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is set to travel to the United States for a planned meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday, as Washington continues efforts to push for a possible peace deal between Kyiv and Moscow.
Zelenskyy said the visit would take place at a location in Florida—widely expected to be President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort—marking the latest development in a diplomatic push that began in November with the circulation of a 28-point U.S. plan shaped with input from Russian officials.
“We are not losing a single day. We have agreed on a meeting at the highest level—with President Trump in the near future,” Zelenskyy wrote in a post on X on Friday, adding that “a lot can be decided before the New Year.”
Early on Saturday, several powerful explosions rocked Kyiv, as authorities warned that the Ukrainian capital was under the threat of missile attacks and that air defense systems were actively operating.
