Zelensky quietly backs Putin's remark, then does this as Trump rules out ‘deal or no deal’ drama

After his high-stakes meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, U.S. President Donald Trump hosted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Washington. Trump claimed both Putin and Zelensky “want the war to end,” promising an “everlasting peace” deal. Zelensky stressed Ukraine’s strength but signaled readiness for trilateral talks. Trump also hinted at major security guarantees for Kyiv, while lashing out at Joe Biden for fueling the conflict. With Europe’s leaders watching closely, could this meeting redefine the war’s trajectory—or leave Ukraine facing tough choices?
