Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Donald Trump have met inside St Peter's Basilica ahead of Pope Francis' funeral. The White House described the 15-minute meeting as "very productive" and Zelensky later called it "very symbolic" with the "potential to become historic".

Trump and Zelensky were pictured sitting locked in deep discussion, minutes before Pope Francis' funeral was due to start. The meeting came a day after Trump said Russia and Ukraine were "very close to a deal", following talks between his envoy Steve Witkoff and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Friday.

Funerals can get things ironed out.

Traitors play their cards.

That is where Tessio played his cards.

But in this case the little fella is holding no cards.

Whatever.

His fate will likely be no better than Sallie’s.

It’s good to show up at funerals. Many now unthinkingly shun them.

Zelensky shows who he considers important enough to suit up for.

Scanning TV network news coverage this a.m. (ABC I think), commenter said Zelensky was only leader who received applause at the funeral.

"Zelensky and Trump meet inside St Peter's Basilica"

Tell 'The King Over the Water' and 'Bonnie Prince Charlie' that Paal Gulli sez "Hey!"*

* Both are entombed in St Peter's. There also is a cenotaph to them in St Peter's.
