Скачать или смотреть Zelensky to travel to US as Putin and Trump hail talks

US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin have both reflected positively on talks held in Alaska yesterday as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky prepares to travel for separate talks with Mr Trump in Washington DC on Monday.

Mr Trump said Ukraine should agree a deal to end the war with Russia because "Russia is a very big power, and they're not", after hosting a summit with President Vladimir Putin that failed to yield a ceasefire.
