Quote from Zelenskyy's letter to Trump: "All of us in Ukraine want to end this war with a just peace.

And we know that without America this is impossible to achieve. That's why we have to strive to understand each other and remain in close contact."   "Days ago, we requested a meeting with you, and I really want to hear your thoughts directly, and firsthand." 

"You know I always speak with great respect about everything connected to you, and that's how it should be. I can be in New York on Friday, which would be a good time to meet."
