Italian Prime Minister Giorgio Meloni plans to attend a meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Zelensky in Washington on August 18, Il Fatto Quotidiano reported with reference to Palazzo Chigi.
Meloni should demonstrate her role in the Ukrainian settlement, which is different from the role of other European leaders, the newspaper writes.
Bild, citing sources, reported that German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will decide on August 17 whether they will go to Washington to Trump's meeting with Zelensky.
