The White House has asked Ukrainian officials whether Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will wear a suit when he meets with Donald Trump in Washington on Monday, Axios reports.

The question is important because the US president has repeatedly criticized Zelensky's military-style attire. Among other things, the US president made this clear to himself during the meeting in late February when they fought live on air."The way you're dressed today" - these were Trump's first words to the Ukrainian president when he got out of the car.

According to Axios, the Ukrainian president will appear at the White House on Monday in the same black jacket that he wore at the NATO summit in the Netherlands in June, which you can see on our cover photo."It will be suit-like, but not a full suit," one source told the newspaper. One of Trump's advisers said that they do not expect Zelensky to wear a suit, and that it would be great if he wore a tie, but they do not expect him to.
