KYIV:Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Monday he will travel to the United States this week for talks on the potential US provision of long-range weapons, a day after US President Donald Trump warned Russia he may send Kyiv long-range Tomahawk missiles.
A meeting between Zelenskyy and Trump could take place as early as Friday, the Ukrainian president said, adding that he also would meet with defence and energy companies and members of Congress.
“The main topics will be air defence and our long-range capabilities, to maintain pressure on Russia,” Zelenskyy said.
