Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky says he had a “good meeting” with US President Donald Trump today, with discussion focusing on licensing for Kyiv to produce US missile interceptors and how to breathe life into peace talks with Russia.
“A good meeting with President Trump in the Oval Office,” Zelensky writes on Telegram.
“We talked with the President about licenses for producing interceptors for the Patriots and other ideas that could help. We also talked about diplomacy — it is important to step up the diplomatic process.”
