Watch as Antony Blinken holds a virtual panel session with Volodymyr Zelensky.

The session, titled "A Just and Lasting Peace in Ukraine," is being chaired by the US secretary of state.

According to officials, the virtual gathering will feature the Ukraine president, who will share his vision for his country's future.

Foreign ministers from a "regionally diverse group of countries" will also join the session to provide "various perspectives on the elements needed to end Russia’s war."

The group will discuss how to establish "durable peace in Ukraine in line with principles contained in the UN Charter."

It comes after Zelensky met with American actor Orlando Bloom, who praised the “courage and determination” of Ukrainian people during their meeting.

Zelensky also recently handed out medals to troops in southeastern Zaporizhzhia, the latest stage of his tour of frontline regions.
