Zelensky says talks with Trump were 'good and productive'
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky held talks with Donald Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron on the sidelines of the grand ceremony.
Zelensky said that his meeting with the US president-elect and the French leader on Saturday (Dec 7) was "good and productive" and that the three agreed to work together.
Macron hosted the significant meeting at the Elysee Palace, bringing together Zelensky and Trump for three-way talks. The discussion centred around the complexities of the current global landscape, which the US-president elect poignantly described as a world that's "a little crazy".
This was Zelensky's first face-to-face meeting with Trump and also the incoming US president's first-ever international visit since winning the November 5 elections.
"We all want peace. But it is very important for us... that the peace is just for all of us and that Russia, [Russian President Vladimir] Putin or any other aggressor has no possibility of ever returning," Zelensky said according to the presidential website.
"And this is the most important thing -- a just peace and security guarantees, strong security guarantees for Ukraine," he added.
