Zelenskyy considers G20 one of best opportunities for trilateral meeting with Trump, Putin
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy considers the G20 summit a potential opportunity to hold a trilateral meeting between Ukraine, the US, and Russia that could yield a real outcome.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sees the upcoming G20 summit as a prime opportunity to engage in a trilateral meeting with the United States and Russia, according to statements made to journalists following his address at the UN General Assembly. The summit, scheduled for December 12, is a proposal put forth by the American side, particularly President Donald Trump. Zelenskyy noted that this event could potentially yield a real outcome for Ukraine.
He emphasized that Ukraine has previously discussed the possibility of such a format and its readiness to participate in the meeting, provided that US President Trump joins the proceedings along with extensive representation from the G20 countries. Zelenskyy highlighted that the participation would not be limited to Europe alone, as the meeting would also include European partners, representatives from the Middle East, additional nations, China, and India.
The Ukrainian President pointed out that the G20 encompasses a wide array of diverse nations, including those with conflicting views on Ukraine and Russia, as well as those maintaining ongoing economic ties with Russia. In Zelenskyy's view, this diverse representation could create an environment conducive to achieving a productive outcome during a trilateral meeting. He added that Ukraine would support this format if a relevant agreement is reached, signaling its openness to engage in such discussions.
