Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is anticipated to visit the White House next week for a meeting with his U.S. counterpart, Donald Trump. The announcement came from a White House official on Friday, July 24.

While Zelenskyy's team wants to travel to the United States, they are awaiting official confirmation of Trump's schedule. Representatives for Zelenskyy did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Reuters.

Earlier on Friday, conservative activist Laura Loomer reported that Zelenskyy told her during an interview that he would likely be in the U.S. next week. Loomer, an ally of Trump, added on the platform X that Zelenskyy also stated he would attend the funeral of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, who recently passed away.

Senator Graham was a significant supporter of Ukraine, having visited the country 10 times since the Russian invasion. He actively promoted sanctions against Russia and advocated for U.S. support for Kyiv.
