Well, well, well… you won’t believe what went down in Vatican City! Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and President Donald Trump had a private sit-down inside the sacred St. Peter’s Basilica just before Pope Francis’ funeral. Yep, you read that right. A moment of world-shaking politics inside a church—talk about a meeting of the minds!

It was supposed to be all somber and respectful for the Pope’s send-off, but these two leaders? They had a mission: peace talks. And no, this wasn’t just some casual handshake. The Sun say their 15-minute pow-wow was intense. The buzz? They were hashing out ways to bring an end to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict. It’s serious stuff. Trump even threw in his two cents on a ceasefire, something that’s been a hot topic in global politics.

But here’s the kicker—this wasn’t just about politics. This is about the future. A source close to Zelenskyy told Reuters, “The talks were productive, and we’re hopeful.” Yeah, okay—short, sweet, but promising.

Now, the big question is: what will come out of it? No word yet on a follow-up meeting, but both sides are clearly on the same page when it comes to putting an end to the bloodshed. Meanwhile, other global leaders like French President Macron were also in the mix at the funeral, so you know this was a moment in international diplomacy.

We’re all ears for the next chapter in this global showdown. The question is—will this face-to-face have a lasting impact? Only time will tell.
