NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has arrived in Kyiv on an official visit. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha has announced this, sharing a joint photo with the Alliance’s head at the capital’s central train station.
According to the head of the Foreign Ministry, the Secretary General’s visit includes a series of critical talks aimed at strengthening defense cooperation and coordinating joint actions to counter russian aggression.
The Foreign Minister noted the high level of solidarity among allies and emphasized the significance of the Secretary General’s personal presence in the Ukrainian capital.
"Pleased to welcome Mark Rutte to Kyiv for talks with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and important meetings. We deeply appreciate NATO’s unity and strength in supporting Ukraine as we defend transatlantic security together," Andrii Sybiha stated.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, five NATO member states, including the United Kingdom and France, blocked an initiative to increase military aid to Ukraine.
Earlier, Rutte called on NATO countries to increase aid to Ukraine: we are talking about tens of billions of dollars.
