Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, accompanied by First Lady Olena Zelenska, has arrived in Finland for an official visit.
The head of state announced this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.
“Together with the First Lady, I am on an official visit to our friends and principled allies — Finland. Meetings will be held with President Alexander Stubb and First Lady Suzanne Innes-Stubb, Speaker Jussi Halla-aho and members of Parliament, Prime Minister Petteri Orpo, government officials, and representatives of defense companies,” Zelensky wrote.
He stressed that key topics include defense support, investment in Ukrainian weapons production, and Ukraine’s European integration, the Finnish expertise in developing a civil defense system and constructing shelters, strengthening sanctions against Russia, and coordinating efforts to bring the war to a just end.
“Europe must be at the negotiating table, and everything related to Europe’s security should be decided together with Europe,” Zelensky said.
He also added that the First Lady’s program focuses on educational cooperation: expanding the Coalition of Ukrainian Studies, ensuring the security of educational spaces, arranging school shelters, and exchanging expertise on the school feeding system in Finland. She will also hold meetings with business leaders, philanthropists and representatives of the cultural community.
