Selenskyj Visits Berlin Amid Summit Delay

Published: 2024-10-09

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to visit Berlin on Friday to meet with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

This visit comes despite the postponement of the Ukraine Solidarity Summit in Ramstein, initially planned for 50 allied nations, due to U.

S. President Joe Biden's cancellation.

Biden's visit was called off because of Hurricane Milton approaching Florida.

The summit, which would have been the first at the level of heads of state, has no rescheduled date yet.

Zelensky's visit marks his second to Germany in five weeks, highlighting ongoing diplomatic efforts amid the conflict with Russia.
