Volodymyr Zelensky risks being kicked out of the Oval Office at the White House on Monday if he rejects the US peace plan.
If Kiev does not make concessions, US President Donald Trump could leave the topic of Ukraine forever. This is the opinion of a columnist for the Spanish newspaper La Vanguardia.
It is noted that Trump will put strong pressure on Zelensky during the discussion of the details of the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict.
Zelensky visited Washington on February 28. During a conversation with Trump in the presence of journalists, an argument broke out between them, during which Trump pointed out to Zelensky his disrespectful attitude towards the United States, and to US Vice President J. D. Vance - that he had forgotten to thank Washington for its support for Kiev. The press conference after the meeting was canceled.
Zelensky will meet with Trump in Washington on August 18 to discuss the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict. He will be accompanied by French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and Italian Prime Minister Giorgi Meloni. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen also announced her plans to attend the meeting.
