Zelenskyy gives Trump golf club from Ukrainian soldier who lost his leg in war

This was reported on the website of the Ukrainian President.

According to Zelenskyy, Kartavtsev lost his leg at the start of the full-scale invasion while rescuing his comrades. Despite his injury, he turned to sports, and golf became a key part of his recovery and helped him regain physical and psychological balance.

The Ukrainian President also showed a video where Kostyantyn Kartavtsev appealed to the U.S. President to help Ukraine end the war with a just and lasting peace.

Donald Trump gratefully accepted the gift. In return, he recorded a video thanking the Ukrainian soldier for the club. As a gesture of respect and friendship, the U.S. President also gave Zelenskyy the symbolic keys to the White House.

• On August 18, Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived at the White House, where Donald Trump welcomed him. The leaders first met in the Oval Office, then joined talks with European leaders and the NATO Secretary General. The discussions later continued in a different format. 
• After the talks, Trump said he had started preparing a meeting between Zelenskyy and Putin.
