The summit to be held in Hungary between President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, has led the White House to continue betting on peace and make the decision not to provide Ukraine with US-made Tomahawk missiles.
Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky, arrived in Washington on Friday to meet with Trump and discuss the new weapons his army intends to acquire to continue fighting against Russia. Previously, the US president had communicated with Putin and both had agreed to meet soon in Budapest to finalize details on ending the war.
Trump emphasized the need to reach an agreement—like the one he signed in the Middle East—that would end the war and be "lasting." "The Middle East was a much more complicated situation," the president noted, referring to the peace agreement he made between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas."
