He said this during a conversation with journalists, as quoted by Interfax-Ukraine.Zelenskyy stated that there will be a large number of bilateral meetings during the UN General Assembly."Business, technology, defense, a mineral deal. This will be combined into a major economic meeting. And, of course, a meeting with the President of the United States of America. Also, most likely, a meeting of the first ladies of Ukraine and the United States on humanitarian issues, concerning children," he said.The president explained that during the meeting with Trump, he would like to receive signals on "how close we are to understanding that the security guarantees from all partners will be as we need them," as well as regarding sanctions against the Russian Federation."We have prepared the foundation for security guarantees, which Europe is ready to accept, considering that the United States of America will be by our side. We have held many discussions; there has been dialogue at various levels, including with the leadership of our armies and general staffs with Europeans and Americans. A meeting took place between the UK Prime Minister and the U.S. President, and it was discussed that we will address these relevant matters at our bilateral meeting in New York," he noted.Zelenskyy also remarked that Trump expects strong actions from Europe."Of course, we support all of Europe imposing sanctions, strengthening tariff policies against countries that buy energy resources from Russia. But tying all this together slows down the pressure on Putin. We are ready for a meeting with Putin. I have spoken about this. Both bilateral and trilateral. He is not ready," he added.
