Zelensky's White House visit to secure Trump's support against Russia likely today
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected at the White House for talks with Donald Trump to secure US support against Russia.
Relations between Zelensky and Trump have long been strained, but Trump has shown greater indulgence in recent weeks.
Trump has largely ended direct US arms deliveries to Kyiv, replacing them with the PURL programme allowing Europeans to buy weapons for Ukraine.
Washington remains a major ally providing intelligence and Starlink satellite system access for frontline communications.
During their last meeting in Turkey, Trump said Zelensky did "an amazing job" and announced intent to allow Ukraine to produce anti-aircraft Patriot missiles.
