Zelensky meets US think tank leaders and experts in New York to discuss Ukraine and peace talks
The Ukrainian president held discussions with American experts and think tank heads on the state of the war and prospects for peace negotiations.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky met with a group of experts and heads of American think tanks in New York, where discussions focused on developments in the war in Ukraine and the status of peace negotiations, according to Ukrinform.
The meeting brought together figures from the US foreign policy and analytical community, providing a forum for Zelensky to present Ukraine's position on the conflict and gather perspectives from experts closely following the negotiations and broader geopolitical dynamics surrounding the war.
Continued diplomatic engagement
Such meetings form part of Zelensky's broader pattern of engagement with US policy circles, including government officials, congressional members and independent analysts, as Ukraine seeks to maintain international support for its position in any eventual settlement of the conflict with Russia.
Discussions with think tank leaders often serve to shape the wider policy debate in Washington, given the influence these institutions can have on public discourse and, at times, on government decision-making. Engaging directly with these experts allows Ukrainian officials to address questions and concerns that may later surface in policy discussions or media commentary.
No further details of the specific outcomes or agreements from the meeting were disclosed. The visit comes amid ongoing international efforts to advance negotiations aimed at ending the war, with the involvement of various governments and institutions continuing to shape the diplomatic landscape surrounding the conflict.
