NATO Secretary General invites Ukrainian President to NATO summit during unannounced visit to Kyiv

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg arrived in Kyiv on an unannounced visit on April 29 to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and extend an invitation to the NATO Summit in Washington.

“It’s important to visit Kyiv again and meet with President Zelenskyy. The situation is difficult, but it is not too late for Ukraine to prevail – and more support is on the way,” he wrote in his X post.

“NATO is also stepping up for the long haul, putting Ukraine on an irreversible path to the Alliance.”

During a joint press conference, Stoltenberg praised Zelenskyy’s leadership and the bravery of Ukrainian forces and civilians and invited the Ukrainian President to attend the NATO Summit in Washington in July.
