Blinken Will Visit Ukraine in Show of Support Against Russia
WASHINGTON Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken will travel to Kyiv next week, a clear signal of the Biden administrations support for Ukraines government against threats from Russia.
In a statement announcing the trip, the State Department said Mr. Blinken would reaffirm unwavering U.S. support for Ukraines sovereignty and territorial integrity in the face of Russias ongoing aggression.
Mr. Blinken will meet in Kyiv on Wednesday and Thursday with President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, senior officials and civil society representatives. His visit will be preceded by a three-day stop in London.
Mr. Blinken will be the most senior American official to visit Kyiv since Secretary of State Mike Pompeo traveled there in February 2020, soon after Congress impeached and acquitted President Donald J. Trump on charges that he abused his power by leveraging U.S. policy toward the country in an effort to incriminate Joseph R. Biden Jr., then a Democratic candidate for president, and his son, Hunter.
