Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva departed the G7 summit in Alberta, Canada, on June 17 without holding a planned meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, leaving Kyiv's request for bilateral talks unfulfilled.

President Donald Trump and Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky, were supposed to meet on the sidelines of the Group of Seven leaders’ summit in Canada, one day after Trump complained that Russia should never have been removed from the organization.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky cut short his visit and left the Group of Seven summit on Tuesday local time, after having missed the chance to meet and press US President Donald Trump for more weapons and failing to see a joint statement on the Ukraine crisis issued at the meeting amid US pushback.
