United States should offer Zelensky safe transportatioin to the Hague and back home. If he flew in a Ukrainian plabe it's too likele Puyin would have his fighter jets shoot it down but he might think twicw if it was a American plane, Oh wait, I just remembered who is President. Perhaps a train would be safer travelin in disguise.

The Ukrainian security services are more than capable of protecting President Zelensky on his way to the summit. Ukrainian F-16s will escort his plane. Moreover, Zelensky's experienced bodyguard detail has protected him at the front lines of the war and reportedly from assassination attempts.

The choice of the Hague for the NATO summit is clever. The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued international arrest warrants for Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu while the International Court of Justice (ICJ) heard testimony that Russia and Israel are committing genocide against Ukrainians and Palestinians.
