“We agreed to meet in New York, and this meeting could change a lot. He placed the pursuit of peace at the centre of Ukraine’s engagement with the American team. The Ukrainian president identified energy security, food security and the protection of human life as issues being considered alongside possible steps to reduce tensions.

Separately, Zelensky thanked the US president for signing legislation he referred to as the Lindsey Graham bill into law.
There is diplomatic momentum,” Zelensky said in a post on X after speaking with Trump. Zelensky described the conversation as important and said it had covered substantial ground. “The peace track is our number one priority,” he said. “I thanked the American President for signing the Lindsey Graham bill into law,” he said.
