Ukrainian President Zelenskiy said at a UN General Assembly press briefing he is
ready to enter trilateral talks with Russian President Putin and US President
Trump aimed at ending the war. He called his meeting with Trump positive and
said they discussed possible de-escalation measures to reopen diplomacy
channels, including a potential energy ceasefire under which parties would not
strike each other’s energy infrastructure; any Russian signal of engagement
would indicate willingness to act. Zelenskiy said he did not receive a specific
US commitment on additional interceptor missile systems, though the tone was
positive, and he urged Trump to expedite licensing for Ukraine to produce
Patriot missile systems.
