Will Putin and Zelensky actually meet?

Your questions answered after Donald Trump hosted a summit of western leaders in Washington to discuss security guarantees, ceasefire conditions and a possible blockbuster bilat.

After key summits in Alaska and Washington, Donald Trump has talked up the chances of a meeting between Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin. So, has a change in tone from the US on security guarantees moved the needle? Is a temporary ceasefire now less likely? And would a face-to-face encounter with a leader he's long sought to delegitimise, mark a clear concession from President Putin?

To answer your questions, Jamie Coomarasamy is joined in the Ukrainecast studio by the BBC's Russia Editor Steve Rosenberg and Ukraine correspondent James Waterhouse, who are meeting in person for the first time themselves.
