President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine has announced that a high-level Ukrainian delegation will visit the United States next week. This strategic visit aims to deepen discussions on several critical issues including air defense, energy sustainability, and enhanced sanctions. The delegation will be led by Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko and will feature key figures such as Andriy Yermak, the Head of the Office of the President, and Vladyslav Vlasiuk, the Advisor-Commissioner of the President for Sanctions Policy.

The meetings are set to cover a broad agenda, with topics including the ongoing negotiation track and the thorny issue of Ukraine’s frozen assets in the U.S. President Zelenskyy expressed support for U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposals aimed at ending the ongoing conflict, highlighting readiness for a dialogue format Trump has previously declared. However, Zelenskyy also criticized Russia’s continued aggression and lack of peace intentions, accusing the country of intensifying attacks and engaging in terrorist acts against Ukrainian civilians and infrastructure.

Amidst these turbulent times, Ukraine is advocating for a just peace and is prepared to engage in meaningful dialogue to achieve this end. The visit underscores the continuous communication between Ukraine and the United States, as both nations seek to navigate the challenges and opportunities of their bilateral relations.
