U.S. President Donald Trump will host his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, on Sunday (December 28, 2025) to try to close out a peace agreement that would end nearly four years of war that began with Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

The two will meet at Mar-a-Lago, Mr. Trump’s private club in Palm Beach, Florida, where the U.S. president is spending the holidays and has an agenda mostly filled with daily rounds of golf.
Mr. Zelenskyy said the two planned to discuss security and economic agreements, and he will raise “territorial issues” as Moscow and Kyiv remain fiercely at odds over the fate of the Donbas region in eastern Ukraine.
In the days before the meeting, Russia has intensified its attacks on Ukraine's capital, using missiles and drones to attack Kyiv and try to increase the pressure on Mr. Zelenskyy.
