Hours after Trump reveals new Putin meeting plan, Zelensky's 1st reaction on camera| Ukraine,Russia

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky responded to reports that President Trump and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban discussed hosting a Trump-Putin summit in Budapest, saying Ukraine supports “any format” that achieves a ceasefire and ends the war, but emphasized such meetings must bring real results—not just serve as electoral theater for third parties. Zelensky dismissed the value of any “meetings about us without us,” insisting Ukraine’s presence and interests are essential for meaningful negotiations. He added that while Ukraine welcomes any diplomatic effort to end Russia’s invasion, it cannot support formats that include Belarus or Russia as “allies in this war against us,” reinforcing that decisions about Ukraine must include Ukraine.
