Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky needs to convince Donald Trump to support his country and his cause and use the influence of the White House to end the war with Russia.

Axar.az reports, citing Sky news, working in his favour is the fact that Ukraine is now starting to show signs of having the upper hand on the battlefield, and Russia's economy is in tatters.

Trump likes to back winners, and if he can be convinced that Ukraine is now starting to slowly win back territory, then he might be persuaded to fully back Ukraine over Russia.

Trump, fresh from doing his deal with Iran, has shown signs that he will re-engage with the war in Ukraine.

European leaders will be pleased to hear that, but they now want to ensure that Europe is part of any future negotiations with Russia.
