Ukrainian President Holds Talks with Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya

According to ХВИЛЯ: During a summit convened in Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky sat down with Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya and her delegation. The event gathered representatives from 24 countries, including several of Ukraine’s European neighbors:

• Poland
• Slovakia
• Hungary
• Moldova
• Romania
• Belarus

At the meeting, Zelensky voiced his backing for the Belarusian people’s aspirations to break free from Russian interference. He warned that Moscow is attempting to drag Belarus into its war against Ukraine, while also stressing the significance of ties between the two nations. The Ukrainian leader thanked Belarusians who are standing with Ukraine during this critical period.

“We appreciate every gesture of solidarity from Belarusians toward a free Ukraine, and we know the day will come when our countries will once again enjoy good-neighborly relations, built on genuine independence for both Ukraine and Belarus from Moscow.” – Volodymyr Zelensky

The president added: “Ukraine has never posed a threat to Belarus. And we are grateful to those Belarusians who are with Ukraine now, at a time when the fate of our independence-and the independence of every nation bordering Russia-is being decided.” These remarks underscore the need for collaboration and mutual understanding between the countries amid today’s challenges.

This meeting highlights Ukraine’s ongoing efforts to strengthen international partnerships and support democratic movements in neighboring states. With Russian pressure mounting, closer cooperation between Ukraine and Belarus could become a key factor in securing regional stability and security. Solidarity between the Ukrainian and Belarusian peoples in their struggles for independence may also bolster both nations’ standing on the global stage.
