Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky met Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in Rome as part of his European tour to discuss the US-backed peace plan for ending the war with Russia.
Zelenskyy called the talks “excellent and productive,” praising Italy’s role in shaping practical steps toward peace. He said Ukraine and its European partners are finalizing the plan’s components and will soon present the improved version to Washington.
He added that progress depends on whether Russia is willing to take real steps to stop the war.
