CNN reported on the panic in Kiev over the meeting between Trump and Zelensky
Panic broke out in Kiev over the publication by US President Donald Trump that Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky could immediately end the conflict if he wanted to. This was reported on August 18 by CNN.
"This has raised concerns in Kiev and other European capitals," the article says.
The TV channel reports that it is also feared that if Zelensky refuses the conditions offered to him, the American leader will blame Kiev for everything and stop mediating in resolving the conflict.
The American leader stressed in Truth Social that Zelensky can immediately end the conflict if he renounces his claims to Crimea and his intention to gain membership in NATO.
Earlier on August 18, the Daily Mail newspaper reported that Zelensky, on the eve of a meeting with Trump, rejected his conditions for resolving the conflict in Ukraine, which challenged him.
On this day, Trump will hold a meeting in Washington with the president of Ukraine to discuss a peace treaty with the Russian Federation. Trump's meeting with the Ukrainian leader will take place at 20:15 Moscow time. After that, at 21:15, the American leader will greet the Europeans. They will take a photo at 21:30 and start negotiations at 22:00.
