German Foreign Minister Visits Kyiv Amidst Security Concerns
German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul arrived in Kyiv by a special train for his fourth visit since taking office. The visit was not announced in advance for security reasons and took place against the backdrop of overnight rocket and drone strikes on the city. Temporary traffic restrictions have been introduced in the city center and several districts due to security measures related to visits by foreign delegations. Around ten European officials, including the President of the European Council, António Costa, are expected to arrive in Kyiv on August 24 for a meeting of the 'Coalition of the Willing' in a hybrid format.5 sourcesSee all sources
