Trump Announces Monday Meeting with Zelenskyy for Ukraine Peace Agreement After Putin Summit

President Donald Trump has announced he will meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House on Monday afternoon, August 18, 2025, to discuss a direct “Peace Agreement” aimed at ending the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. This pivotal meeting follows Trump’s discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage, Alaska, on Friday, August 15, which Trump described as “extremely productive” despite concluding without an immediate ceasefire or peace deal.

Trump’s announcement, made via Truth Social, came after a “late night phone call” with Zelenskyy and other key European leaders, including NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. During the call, all parties agreed that a comprehensive “Peace Agreement,” rather than a temporary ceasefire, is the optimal path to resolve the conflict.

European leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, confirmed they were debriefed on the Putin meeting and welcomed Trump’s commitment to providing “ironclad security guarantees” for Ukraine. They expressed readiness to collaborate with Trump and Zelenskyy towards a potential trilateral summit with broader European support. While details of the proposed agreement remain undisclosed, the focus is on a resolution that could potentially save millions of lives.
