Ukrainian presidential advisor refutes report that Trump proposed Zelenskyy meet Putin in Moscow
U.S. President Donald Trump did not urge Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to travel to Moscow to resume negotiations with Vladimir Putin on ending the war, according to Dmytro Lytvyn, communications advisor to President Zelenskyy.
Ukraine's presidential advisor, Dmytro Lytvyn, has denied a report that U.S. President Donald Trump suggested Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy travel to Moscow to negotiate with Vladimir Putin. Lytvyn told journalists that the information is false when asked to comment on a Bloomberg report alleging such a request from Trump.
Bloomberg cited its own sources in reporting that during a meeting with Zelenskyy at the UN, Trump had again urged him to visit Moscow for peace talks between Ukraine and Russia. Despite previous refusals, Zelenskyy allegedly rejected this request. However, a senior U.S. official contradicted Bloomberg's claim but did not offer further details.
European officials reportedly stated that Trump and his team were supportive of providing assistance to Ukraine ahead of winter and welcomed the meeting between the U.S. president and Zelenskyy.
