Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that he does not support the idea of holding future peace talks on Ukraine in Hungary, Sky News reports. According to the White House, US President Donald Trump proposed Budapest as the venue for a meeting between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy,

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has voiced his scepticism about selecting the Hungarian capital as a site for a possible trilateral meeting involving the presidents of the US, Russia and Ukraine to discuss the next steps in negotiating an end to the war.
