Right before Pope Francis’s funeral, Trump and Zelensky from Ukraine met at the Vatican. They talked alone, without anyone else listening. This was important because they hadn’t had a good meeting before, and the US really wants peace in Ukraine.  

Zelensky said the meeting was good and he hoped they could get things done. He wants fighting to stop and for there to be real peace, so there won’t be another war. He said it could be a big deal if they work together.  

But after the meeting, Trump said he wasn’t sure if Putin, the leader of Russia, really wanted peace. This happened while the US is trying hard to make peace happen. So, even though Zelensky was hopeful, Trump was still worried.
