Zelenskyy and Kellogg discuss battlefield situation and diplomatic options
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US Special Presidential Envoy for Ukraine and Russia Keith Kellogg discussed the situation on the battlefield and diplomatic opportunities during their meeting in Washington.
“We discussed the battlefield situation and our strong diplomatic capabilities – Ukraine’s and all of Europe’s together with America. Russia can only be forced into peace through strength, and President Trump has that strength. We have to do everything right to make peace happen,” Zelenkyy said on X Monday.
He thanked Kellogg for the meeting and for working with the Ukrainian team.
“President Trump invited Ukraine and other European countries to Washington today – this is the first meeting in such a format, and it is very serious. When peace is discussed for one country in Europe, it means peace for all of Europe. We are ready to continue working with maximum effort to end the war and to ensure reliable security. These are the key issues,” Zelenskyy said.
He noted that Russian attacks against Ukrainian cities continued on Monday night. Among those killed were two children, and there were dozens of wounded.
