Trump says he could meet Zelensky soon to talk peace

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

President Trump says he might meet his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky, next week, telling reporters he wanted the war in Ukraine to come to an end. Mr Zelensky said Washington and Kyiv were planning talks, but did not give further details. Trump's envoy for the region will be at the Munich Security Conference next Friday. As Ukrainians reckon with the cost of almost three years of war, we speak to a British man whose teenage son volunteered to fight there only to be killed on his first mission. And a premiere at last for Morgiane, the first complete opera composed by a Black American - unsung, in more ways than one, for nearly 140 years.
