Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will travel to the Czech Republic on Sunday for talks with President Petr Pavel, the Czech presidential office confirmed, as part of Zelenskyy’s ongoing diplomatic campaign to secure stronger international backing and press for a ceasefire with Russia.
The visit comes as Prague continues to play a leading role in European support for Ukraine. Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022, the Czech government has been one of Kyiv’s most vocal supporters and has spearheaded a major initiative to source and supply large-calibre ammunition to Ukrainian forces.
Under this initiative, the Czech Republic has leveraged its diplomatic, industrial, and business networks to locate and purchase artillery shells worldwide, delivering over 1 million rounds with financial support from NATO allies.
Zelenskyy last visited the Czech capital in July 2023. His latest trip is part of a broader foreign policy drive to strengthen alliances and advance efforts toward ending the war, now entering its fourth year.
In a post on the social platform X on Saturday, Zelenskyy said he was preparing for “upcoming foreign policy meetings” and confirmed he is seeking new partners to support a path to ceasefire.
He also disclosed that he discussed air defense systems and sanctions on Russia with U.S. President Donald Trump during a meeting on the sidelines of Pope Francis’ funeral at the Vatican. According to Zelenskyy, the two leaders agreed that a 30-day ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia would be the "correct first step" toward de-escalation.
