Biden's Visit to Ukraine in Coming Days Can Help De-escalate Tensions - Zelenskyy
KIEV (Sputnik) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has invited US President Joe Biden to visit Kiev in the coming days and said that this visit could help de-escalate tensions.
The presidential office said that Zelenskyy thanked Biden for his support and invited him to visit Ukraine during the phone conversation on Sunday.
"I am convinced that your arrival in Kyiv in the coming days, which are crucial for stabilizing the situation, will be a powerful signal and contribute to de-escalation," Zelenskyy said as quoted by the presidential office.
Zelenskyy also told Biden that it is important for Kiev to receive security guarantees from Washington, the statement said.
Moments before additional insight was provided on the highly-anticipated call, reports indicated that the Ukrainian president had urged Biden to make a trip to Ukraine "as soon as possible," a knowledgable source told CNN.
However, Biden's visit seems unlikely given the current state of affairs, CNN said, citing unnamed US officials.
