Donald Trump met Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at Pope Francis’ funeral in an unplanned sit-down inside St. Peter’s Basilica. Their conversation, described as a “mini peace summit,” marked the first time they’d met since their heated White House exchange in February.
Trump also briefly confronted French President Emmanuel Macron beforehand, with a lip reader claiming he told him: “You are not in the right here, you should not be here.” Zelenskyy reportedly nodded in agreement.
The two leaders discussed a potential ceasefire, with Zelenskyy later posting that it was a “good meeting” focused on saving lives and achieving lasting peace. A White House official confirmed the talk was “productive,” with plans for further discussions.
