Zelenskiy to meet Trump at UN in push for energy truce with Russia

Zelenskiy will press for a mutual pause on energy strikes and more U.S.-made Patriot air defense missiles as winter approaches, officials said.

  • 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.
  • Trump recently pressured Zelenskyy to halt strikes on Russian refineries, arguing they exacerbate global diesel shortages; Kyiv maintains these attacks provide essential leverage for de-escalation negotiations.
  • Zelenskyy plans to press the U.S. for additional U.S.-made Patriot air-defense missiles for winter protection, while French President Emmanuel Macron pledged more radars and discussed energy strike moratoriums with Trump.
  • While Zelenskyy described 'diplomatic momentum' following a Sunday phone call with Trump, the leaders' volatile history—including a February 2025 Oval Office shouting match—raises uncertainty about policy commitments.
  • 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.
