Details: The president stated that the US could force Russia into ending the Russian-Ukrainian war, or at least into a ceasefire. At the same time, he emphasised the need for security guarantees for Ukraine.

Quote from Zelenskyy: "All this is possible when partners are around. With the mediation of President Trump or American negotiators. I think this is possible, and one can count on the meeting in Florida during the G20."

Details: At the same time, the Ukrainian president noted: "If President Trump invites Ukraine to such a format, Ukraine will be represented there at the highest level."

Quote from Zelenskyy: "Let's hope this is possible. We have not received such a signal yet. We are counting on it."

Background:

• The United States invited Russian leader Vladimir Putin to the G20 summit in Miami in December, where he could hold a meeting with Trump.
• The Kremlin stated that Russia was "grateful for and appreciates this invitation", promising to make a decision on Putin's participation later.
• On 17 October, Trump stated that he did not know whether Putin would attend the G20 summit in the US.
• Zelenskyy revealed that there is an idea to organise a trilateral meeting of the leaders of Ukraine, the US and Russia, in particular in Miami at the G20 summit in December, but so far there has been no confirmation that it could take place.
