President Joe Biden made a surprise visit to Kyiv on Monday, arriving in Ukraine’s capital in a show of support for the war-torn nation and statement of defiance ahead of the one-year anniversary of the war Russia launched.
“I thought it was critical that there not be any doubt, none whatsoever, about U.S. support for Ukraine in the war,” Biden said during a joint address with Zelenskyy. As the two men toured Kyiv, air raid sirens went off in the Ukrainian capital. Still, the message of his visit was clear: Ukraine is safe enough for an American president to visit despite the missile strikes, drone attacks and trench warfare initiated by Vladimir Putin.
Zelenskyy, who has been pushing for the West to send longer-range missiles to hit faraway Russian positions inside Ukraine, said those long-range missiles are under discussion. Zelenskyy also said he looked forward to conversations with Biden about “what we have to do to stop the war, to have success in this war … and how to win this year.”
