On Thursday, the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, ratified Spain's support, solidarity and commitment to Ukraine upon his arrival in Kiev to meet with the country's president, Volodimir Zelensky.
Sánchez arrived by train to the Ukrainian capital from Poland with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, and on his Twitter account he has released that message of support from Spain for Ukraine, accompanied by the first images of his presence in the country.
He is seen posing for the graphic informants at the train station next to Frederiksen and a representative of the Ukrainian Government in front of the flags of the three countries.
Afterwards, protected by security forces, they accessed the vehicle in which they traveled to meet Zelensky.
Following the meeting, the Ukrainian president along with Sanchez and the Danish Prime Minister are scheduled to hold a joint press conference.
OTHER LEADERS WHO HAVE PASSED THROUGH KIEV
Sanchez thus becomes the last European leader to visit Zelensky in Kiev since the beginning of the conflict on February 24. The last to do so was the President of the European Council, Charles Michel, this Wednesday.
The first political leaders to travel personally to Kiev were the leaders of Poland, Mateusz Morawiecki; from Slovenia, Janez Jansa; and from the Czech Republic, Petr Fiala. On the part of the EU institutions, before Michel, traveled first the President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, and then that of the European Commission, Ursula Von der Leyen, and the High Representative for Foreign Policy of the Twenty-Seven, Josep Borrell, who went together.
As early as April, Slovak Prime Minister Eduard Heger and Austrian Foreign Minister Karl Nehammer also traveled to the Ukrainian capital, as well as the presidents of Poland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania — Andrzej Duda, Alar Karis, Egils Levits and Gypsies Nauseda — who were together, in addition to the British 'premier', Boris Johnson.
US President Joe Biden said he was “ready” to visit Ukraine in the midst of the Russian invasion, as some counterparts have already done, such as the presidents of Poland or the Baltics.
Questioned on this point before the press, the US president has said “yes”. Biden has already visited Poland in the context of the invasion, where he traveled to see the humanitarian crisis “firsthand”. Already on that trip, he regretted not being able to visit Ukraine.
