Zelenskiy to meet Trump at UN in push for energy truce with Russia
- On Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy meets U.S. President Donald Trump at the United Nations in New York to press for an energy truce halting strikes on critical infrastructure.

- Zelenskyy's broader agenda at the 81st UN General Assembly includes around 20 planned meetings to secure international support as Russia continues targeting energy infrastructure across Ukraine.
