US President Joe Biden said on Monday that his visit to Ukraine during the European tour was "unlikely."
It was reported by European Pravda.
"It depends on various factors," Biden said when asked if he planned to visit Ukraine, adding that he did not want to "cause even more difficulties for Ukrainians."
After being asked again if he was expected to go to Ukraine while in Germany and Spain for the G7 and NATO summits, Biden said: "It is unlikely during this visit."
Biden has not visited Ukraine since the country was under russia's invasion.
Instead, he sent US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, and First Lady Jill Biden.
