Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he will meet U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington on Monday after a Russia-U.S. summit concluded without an agreement to stop the fighting in Ukraine after 3 1/2 years.

In the early hours of Saturday morning following a summit in Alaska between the leaders of Russia and the United States, senior politicians in Moscow were quick to trumpet the meeting as a win for Russia and its narrative of the war in Ukraine.

President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin concluded their meeting after more than two-and-a-half hours.

Ukrainian troops are racing to claw back a key stretch of land on the eastern front after a surprise Russian advance bolstered Moscow’s position ahead of Friday’s summit in Alaska between President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The threats, pressure and ultimatums have come and gone, but Russian President Vladimir Putin has maintained Moscow’s uncompromising demands in Ukraine, raising fears he could use a planned summit with U.

Russia has said its demands from negotiations with Ukraine, which include Kyiv's troops pulling out of several regions in the east, haven't changed.
