Zelensky says Ukraine will attend Davos if it gets needed weapons

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukraine will participate in the World Economic Forum in Davos, but only if it receives the weapons necessary for its defense. He made this conditional commitment as discussions about the war continue at the international gathering.

Separately, President Donald Trump said he would meet with Zelensky in Davos. Trump stated that dealing with the conflict should be the responsibility of NATO and the European Union, not the United States. In another development, U.S. real estate developer Michael Witkoff told CNBC he will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, a meeting the Kremlin later confirmed.
