U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky are set to address The Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council this week, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has upended geopolitics and amplified economic challenges that have emerged because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
With the war in Ukraine front and center of global events, Mr. Zelensky is scheduled to address the event by video link. The meeting will open on Tuesday evening with an in-person discussion with the head of the British armed forces, Adm. Tony Radakin.
