US President Donald Trump is hosting Volodymyr Zelenskyy and a cohort of European allies including Sir Keir Starmer at the White House.
The meeting is the next stage of talks following Trump’s landmark peace summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday.
Trump has ruled out Nato membership for Ukraine, hours ahead of today’s meeting.
Writing on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump said Zelenskyy "can end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants to, or he can continue to fight."
He added there would be "no going into Nato by Ukraine" and "no getting back" of Crimea, which Russia illegally annexed from Ukraine in 2014.
The US president appeared excited for Monday’s meeting, adding "big day at the White House tomorrow. Never had so many European Leaders at one time. My great honour to host them!!!"
