US President Donald Trump said late on Tuesday his meetings with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were positive.
Netanyahu and Zelenskiy were in Washington to attend a memorial service for Senator Lindsey Graham, who died earlier this month. In separate short posts on Truth Social, Trump said he discussed various topics with them, without giving specifics.
"Had a very good meeting! Obviously, many important subjects were discussed," Trump wrote on meeting Netanyahu.
The US and Israel attacked Iran on February 28. Tehran responded with its own strikes on Israel and various Gulf states.
US-Israeli strikes on Iran and Israeli attacks on Lebanon have since killed thousands and displaced millions.
The meeting also came as the Gaza ceasefire has been repeatedly violated since it began in October. Nearly 1,200 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have been killed in Israeli attacks since then, according to Gaza health officials. Israel says four of its soldiers have been killed by militants during that period.
Netanyahu described the meeting as "excellent."
Zelenskiy also met Trump and they discussed plans for Ukraine revive peace talks with Russia. Trump wrote: "Many things were discussed. The meeting went very well.
Zelenskiy also cast it as a "good meeting."
