Trump confirms Zelenskiy will join Russia peace talks

Donald Trump announced that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy will participate in peace talks with Russia. This statement comes after US advisers suggested Zelenskiy might not be included in the negotiations set to take place in Saudi Arabia. Zelenskiy has stated he will not accept any agreements made between the US and Russia without Ukraine's involvement. He emphasized that decisions regarding Ukraine must include his country. In related developments, Trump expressed openness to allowing Europe to purchase US-made weapons for Ukraine. This could enable Ukraine to access American military support even as the US reduces its direct involvement.
