The trio met at the Elysee Palace in Paris, almost three years into Moscow's full-scale military action and ahead of Trump taking office in the US in January. "I had a good and productive trilateral meeting with President Donald Trump and President Emmanuel Macron at the Elysee Palace," Zelenskyy said on social media. He thanked Macron for organising the meeting and said:"President Trump is, as always, resolute. I thank him." Zelenskyy said the trio had"agreed to continue working together and keep in contact". His office released images of Zelenskyy shaking hands with Macron and Trump inside the Elysee office. Zelenskyy's spokesman Sergey Nykyforov told journalists the meeting lasted approximately 35 minutes, with only the three leaders present. Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump just before the three men headed to Notre Dame for the re-opening ceremony of the great Paris cathedral was his first face-to-face meeting with tycoon-turned-politician since his election victory.
