Zelensky demands Ukraine's voice in potential Xi-Trump-Putin talks

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine wants to be consulted if its future is discussed at a potential meeting of US, Chinese, and Russian leaders, as reported by Corriere della Sera. Zelensky expressed regret over what he called Putin's gradual exit from isolation, adding that such a meeting would not be the first step in that process. The Wall Street Journal reported the meeting could occur at the APEC summit in November, with the Kremlin confirming talks and President Trump open to the format, while Ukraine's foreign minister and the EU voiced opposition.
