WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday discussed efforts to revive peace talks with Russia and a deal to allow Ukraine to make US-made Patriot missile interceptors.
Zelensky held a private meeting with Trump in the Oval Office, in the absence of reporters.
The visit offered Zelensky an opportunity to shore up military support at a moment when US-Ukraine relations are warmer than they have been in months.
The US, however, has been sitting on aid for Kyiv and the death earlier this month of Senator Lindsey Graham has removed one of Ukraine’s most influential advocates in Washington.
