Later on Monday, Zelenskyy is scheduled to have a one-on-one meeting with President Trump at the White House, followed by expanded-format talks with the European leaders.
Background:
- After the February Oval Office spat, UK officials reportedly tried to teach Zelenskyy to "speak Trump" – an approach that is expected to be applied during Monday’s White House talks.
- Axios has reported that the White House has even asked Ukrainian officials whether Zelenskyy will wear a suit to his meeting with Trump in the Oval Office.
- His attire was an issue during their last Oval Office encounter, which ended in a diplomatic fiasco
