Summary
Zelenskiy said he and Trump agreed to meet at the G7 gathering in Evian-les-Bains after a call focused on ending Russia's more than four-year war in Ukraine.
The Ukrainian leader said he briefed Trump on battlefield developments and argued Kyiv's position had strengthened, creating what he called good ideas to move peace talks closer.
The outreach comes as U.S.-brokered negotiations have stalled while Washington is preoccupied with the Iran conflict, making continued American backing a priority for Kyiv.
Zelenskiy is also pressing a ceasefire track with Moscow and more U.S. air defenses, while Putin still rejects a face-to-face meeting and demands Ukraine cede more territory.
