Trump urges Zelensky to visit Moscow, Ukraine's leader declines

pravda.com.ua (Ukrainian) — September 25, 2026 at 07:01 PM UTC

US President Donald Trump again urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to travel to Moscow for talks with Russian leader Vladimir Putin, but Zelensky refused. The request was made during their meeting in New York on September 22, according to Bloomberg. Zelensky rejected the proposal, and sources said Trump's raising of the issue irritated him. When asked by Russian journalists when he would visit Moscow, Zelensky replied "on a rocket" and reportedly swore. This week, Zelensky and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov held separate meetings with Trump administration officials in New York. The US pushed both sides to agree on a ceasefire targeting energy facilities amid rising global diesel prices. Zelensky said Friday that technical peace talks may occur in the UAE, though no date has been set.
