Zelenskyy shares photos of meeting with Trump at G7 summit, citing need to coordinate positions

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has shared images of a meeting with former US President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the G7 summit held in France. Zelenskyy posted the photos on X, formerly Twitter, with a brief caption stating, "It is always important to coordinate positions."

The images reveal that the discussion was not limited to the two leaders alone. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council Secretary Rustem Umierov were also present, indicating a potentially broader scope to the conversation.

While Zelenskyy's post provided limited details, reports from other sources suggest the meeting occurred within the context of the general summit gatherings. Dmytro Lytvyn, an advisor to President Zelenskyy, confirmed to journalists that the meeting took place during the summit's proceedings.

This encounter follows earlier confirmations from Trump regarding his meetings with Zelenskyy on the sidelines of the G7 summit. Trump had previously indicated he would meet Zelenskyy again on June 16. Reports also mentioned a trilateral meeting involving Zelenskyy, Trump, and French President Emmanuel Macron on the same day.
