President Donald Trump on Sunday teased what he said would be a "big day" as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy prepares for a White House meeting.

The European political heavy-hitters were left out of Trump’s summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin last Friday.

After meeting Vladimir Putin on Friday, President Donald Trump now has to win over Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and his European allies if his efforts to broker peace have any chance of success.

Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskiy and European leaders will meet Donald Trump in Washington on Monday to map out a peace deal amid fears the U.S. president could try to pressure Kyiv into accepting a settlement favourable to Moscow.

President Donald Trump supports Russian leader Vladimir Putin's proposal for Moscow to take full control of the Donbas and freeze the front lines elsewhere for a deal with Ukraine.

President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin are scheduled to meet Friday at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska, to discuss the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

Trump promised during his campaign that he would end Russia’s war on Ukraine on his first day back in office, which is now 207 days ago.

President Donald Trump warned that "severe consequences" lie ahead for Russia if Russian President Vladimir Putin doesn't agree to stop the Ukraine war after they meet for a high-stakes summit in Alaska on Friday.
