A delegation of European Union (EU) leaders has arrived in Kyiv to show solidarity with Ukraine as the country continues to face Russia’s ongoing military invasion.
The high-level visit, which took place on Monday, underscores the EU’s commitment to supporting Ukraine politically, economically, and militarily. The leaders are expected to hold meetings with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and other top officials to discuss further aid packages, security assistance, and Ukraine’s path to European integration.
This visit comes at a critical time, as Ukrainian forces continue to resist Russian advances while appealing for more Western military support, including ammunition and air defense systems. The EU has been a key ally of Ukraine since the conflict began in 2022, imposing sanctions on Russia and providing billions of euros in aid.
Officials from the EU have reiterated their condemnation of Russia’s aggression, calling for increased pressure on Moscow to halt its military operations. Meanwhile, the Kremlin has warned that deeper European involvement in the conflict could escalate tensions further.
As the war enters another year, the EU’s presence in Kyiv signals continued diplomatic and strategic backing for Ukraine, even as the conflict remains far from a resolution.
