Ukraine’s Zelensky Flies to Joint Base Andrews Ahead of Friday Trump Meeting
Oliver JJ Lane 27 Feb 2025
A Ukrainian government jet carrying President Volodymyr Zelensky departed the Republic of Ireland, where he had met with the Irish Prime Minister on Thursday, en route to a meeting with Donald Trump on Thursday.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky plans to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday, he confirmed on Wednesday evening. Speaking in his nightly address to Ukraine, Zelensky said, per Kyiv state media:
Our teams are working with America, we are preparing for negotiations this Friday. An agreement with America. Support for our state and people. Guarantees of peace and security are the key to preventing Russia from destroying the lives of other nations. I will meet with President Trump.
Due to the wartime conditions in Ukraine, Zelensky is not generally able to fly in his own country and customarily takes the train to neighbouring Poland where his executive jet lives. He flew to Ireland’s Shannon international airport, the final major airport capable handling of handling large jets in Western Europe where his aircraft refuelled before taking off for America.
