The meeting will take place in connection with the UN General Assembly meeting. Trump will hold a speech on Tuesday and Zelenskyj will hold his on Wednesday, but it is not yet known which day they will meet.

The leaders' conversation will be about the security guarantees for Ukraine that European countries are behind, which Zelenskyj hopes the American administration will also stand behind.

A meeting between the countries' first ladies, Melania Trump and Olena Zelenska, will also take place during the week, according to Zelenskyj.
