US President Donald Trump has welcomed his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky, to the White House, with whom he is expected to discuss – and potentially sign – an agreement giving the United States access to rare Ukrainian minerals.
They were seen shaking hands, in their first meeting since Trump began his presidential term.
This high-level meeting will be closely watched to see whether the United States will pledge more aid to Kiev, or promise any security guarantees.
The meeting comes less than 10 days after Trump called Zelensky a dictator and falsely suggested that Ukraine started the conflict, which is now in its fourth year.
However, the two leaders have been pushed back from the war of words as they prepare to meet face to face. (A2 Televizion)
