Finnish President Alexander Stubb arrived on a visit to Ukraine. The head of the President's Office, Andrii Yermak, announced this on the Telegram channel, the Ukrainian News agency reports.
"Together with Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, we met with the President of Finland, Alexander Stubb, at the beginning of his visit to Ukraine," he said.
Yermak reported that the focus of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's talks with the Finnish leader today was on security projects, European integration, investments in infrastructure and security guarantees for Ukraine, as well as increased pressure on the aggressor country russia, sanctions and the importance of sustainable peace.
The head of the Office noted that Ukraine is grateful for the consistent and firm support of Finland and personally of Stubb.
"Ukraine, together with its partners, is doing everything to bring sustainable peace closer and guarantee security in Europe," Yermak emphasized.
In turn, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha also reported on the social network X that he and Yermak met Stubb at the Kyiv train station.
Sybiha also reported that Stubb will hold important talks with Zelenskyy on European security and integration, transatlantic pressure on russia, and steps towards a lasting peace.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in early September, Stubb stated that progress had been made on security guarantees for Ukraine, but added that a peace agreement must be concluded before any measures can be implemented.
Zelenskyy paid an official visit to Finland in March.
In May, Ukraine and Finland launched the international Civil Protection Shelter Coalition to support Ukraine.
