WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump will meet leaders from the Middle East and join a working session with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during next week's Group of Seven summit in France, senior US administration officials said on Saturday.
Trump is scheduled to travel to Evian on Monday for the June 15-17 summit, where discussions are expected to focus on the war in Ukraine, the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran, trade disputes, artificial intelligence, energy security and critical supply chains.
The US president will participate on Tuesday in a working session with Zelensky and G7 leaders as Kyiv seeks continued military and financial support from its Western allies. While no formal bilateral meeting between Trump and Zelensky is currently scheduled, administration officials said the two leaders could meet on the sidelines of the summit.
"On Tuesday morning, President Trump will participate in a working session with G7 leaders and President Zelensky of Ukraine," a senior administration official told reporters on condition of anonymity.
