The President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen came to Kyiv.
Her visit is dedicated to the second anniversary of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the aggressor country Russia.
“In Kyiv to mark the anniversary of the 2nd year of Russia’s war on Ukraine. And to celebrate the extraordinary resistance of the Ukrainian people. More than ever, we stand firmly by Ukraine. Financially, economically, militarily, morally. Until the country is finally free,” she wrote on the “X” social network.

On this grim second anniversary of Putin’s invasion I am honoured to be here in Ukraine. With their indomitable courage I have no doubt that the Ukrainians will win and expel Putin’s forces – provided we give them the military, political and economic help that they need. pic.twitter.com/M6VYgOjOPa

Two years since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation, and two years of immense suffering for the Ukrainian people.
The war rages on, and serious violations of human rights and international humanitarian law continue to be committed.
