Quote from Zelenskyy: "There was a good meeting with President Trump, the topics were as broad as possible. We discussed all the issues that are interesting, primarily related to Patriot systems, how to protect our skies and other steps related to the negotiation process, as well as the direction of sanctions, our bilateral relations after the signing of the relevant agreement. That is, the spectrum is wide...

It seems to me that the spirit of the conversation itself was productive. So it’s a good signal."

Details: Zelenskyy stated that further negotiations between Ukraine and the US will proceed at the government level.

"Next, we agreed that the defense ministers, the secretary of state and the minister of foreign affairs, the head of my office and his colleagues from the American side will communicate at their level. When it comes to economic issues, our first deputy prime minister will communicate with Treasury Secretary Bessent and a few other American counterparts," the president said.
