This time is listed in the US President\u2019s schedule. A meeting between Zelenskyy and US senators is also scheduled for 29 July: according to The Hill, all 100 members of the upper house of Congress have been invited to the Capitol.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<p><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The meeting between Zelenskyy and Trump is scheduled for 16:30 on 28 July.<\/li>\n<li>The time of the talks is set out in the US President\u2019s schedule.<\/li>\n<li>On 29 July, Zelenskyy is due to meet with senators at the Capitol.<\/li>\n<li>All 100 members of the Senate were invited to the meeting.<\/li>\n<li>Among the possible topics are new sanctions against Russia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Meetings on the US President\u2019s schedule<\/h2>\n<p>The meeting will take place on 28 July at 4.30 pm. Time of the talks <strong>Vladimir Zelensky<\/strong> \u0456 <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong> as indicated in the US President\u2019s schedule.<\/p>\n<p>No detailed agenda, list of participants, or plans for joint statements or a final document have been made public. Consequently, the topics and specific agreements to be discussed have not yet been clarified.<\/p>\n<h2>A sanctions initiative is to be discussed in the Capitol<\/h2>\n<p>The day after his talks with Trump, Zelenskyy will meet with US senators. The Hill reports that all 100 senators have been invited to the Capitol.<\/p>\n<p>One of the key topics could be the draft bill on new <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/economics\/senat-ssha-sanktsii-rosiya-nafta\/\">sanctions against Russia<\/a>. Bill S. 5025 is officially titled the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia Act of 2026; it was introduced on 16 July.<\/p>\n<p>In their public statements, the authors of the initiative refer to primary and secondary sanctions against Russia and entities aiding its war against Ukraine. The bill also provides for the US President to impose <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/politics\/sanktsii-ssha-proekt-hrema-rf\/\">customs duties up to 100%<\/a> on imports from countries that purchase significant volumes of Russian oil and gas or facilitate the circumvention of restrictions.<\/p>\n<h2>Widespread support does not mean the law has been passed<\/h2>\n<p>According to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the sanctions initiative has the support of more than 60 senators from both parties. The day before, Senators Richard Blumenthal, Jean Shaheen, Roger Wicker and Lindsey Graham announced that they had reached an agreement with the Trump administration on a renewed push for the bill.<\/p>\n<p>However, S. 5025 has not yet become law. According to Axios, discussions took place during the drafting process regarding the limits of the President\u2019s tariff powers and certain provisions of the bill. The current version provides for a maximum rate of 100%, whereas the previous draft had envisaged secondary tariffs of up to 500%.<\/p>\n<p>A meeting with senators could provide the Ukrainian side with a platform to make the case for the faster implementation of sanctions. However, the initiative\u2019s future will depend on the legislative process, compromises within Congress and the US President\u2019s decisions regarding the application of the relevant measures.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zelenskyy and Trump are due to meet on 28 July at 16:30, according to the US President\u2019s schedule.
