Trump to meet with Mideast leaders, attend Ukraine session at G7, U.S. officials say

U.S. President Donald Trump will meet with Middle Eastern leaders and attend a working session with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during the G7 summit in France next week, senior U.S. administration officials said on Saturday.

Trump is scheduled to travel to Evian, France, for the G7 summit early Monday after attending Sunday’s mixed-martial-arts event at the White House. He will speak to a number of European leaders with whom he has squabbled over trade, tariffs, Ukraine and NATO since his return to the White House early in 2025.

Trump will participate in a working session on Tuesday with Zelenskyy and G7 leaders. The meeting comes at a time when Russian advances in Ukraine have slowed and Ukraine seeks more military funding from its allies.

He’ll probably get another 10 billion for his Peace Council. Maybe he’ll win the Iranian war for the fifteen time
