Zelensky expresses readiness to visit presidents in Latin America

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has told the leaders of Latin American countries that he is willing to fly there to meet with them.

The president says this in an interview with Latin American media.

It is very difficult for me to do this in wartime. But I am prepared to do it. 

Zelensky also emphasized that he asked almost every country: "let's hold my meeting with the leaders of your continent."

I'm prepared to fly there; I want to communicate with them. Your people and your society trust their leaders. And if I talk to you and spend time with you, we will see who Putin is in detail and that he is not that great. His time has passed.

And our nations should be friends and develop. Let us tell you what is happening.

If you don't have the opportunity to come to us, that's okay. I don't have a crown, and I'm a very unassuming person; I'll come to you. Let's talk together about our steps going forward.

For the first time in history, Ukraine's foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, took part in the summit of the Association of Caribbean States.

Speaking at the summit, Kuleba emphasized new opportunities for Ukraine's relations with the Caribbean countries, including the development of economic cooperation, business, and people-to-people contacts, technological partnerships, exchange of technologies, and experience in fields of mutual interest.
