U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly visited Ukraine following the tense White House meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymir Zelenskyy.
The tour included meetings with Ukrainian military leaders such as Deputy Minister of Defense Ivan Havryliuk, the International Red Cross Committee and wounded service members, as well as a look at defense industry sites. Kelly, D-Arizona, expressed support for the Ukrainian military and condemned the Russian invasion.
“One thing is clear: No one wants this war to end more than President Zelenskyy and the Ukrainian people,” said Kelly, who returned Sunday to the U.S. “But it has to end in a way that protects their sovereignty and security. The safety of Ukraine is tied to the safety of the United States. That’s why I stand with Ukraine.”
