Former U.S. President Donald Trump is set to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Friday, following a separate meeting with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Thursday night.

Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, announced these high-profile meetings during a Thursday press conference, revealing they will take place at his Trump Tower property in New York. The leaders are in the United States to attend the U.N. General Assembly, seeking discussions with various foreign officials as the November 5 election approaches.

Additionally, Trump met with UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Wednesday, sources confirmed. The Trump campaign has not provided comments on the meeting, and neither has the UAE embassy in Washington.

The decision to meet with Zelenskiy came after several days of conflicting reports indicating such a meeting was unlikely, signaling a shift in Trump's campaign strategy.
