Volodymyr Zelenskyy has revealed that he plans to invite King Charles on a state visit to Ukraine as early as this year, which would make him the most senior royal to travel to Kyiv since Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion.<\/p>\n
The Ukrainian president said he had a close relationship with the king, whom he has met on numerous occasions, including when he gave a public show of support<\/a> after Zelenskyy\u2019s explosive visit to the White House last year.<\/p>\n In an interview with the Guardian<\/a>, Zelenskyy said: \u201cToday I want to invite him [the king] very much. I don\u2019t know from the point of security. Yes, of course, we want to see him in Ukraine very much. I don\u2019t know how it will be this year, if it\u2019s possible, but of course we want to see him.\u201d<\/p>\n Zelenskyy said Charles had continued to support Ukraine<\/a>, but refused to divulge exactly how. \u201cIt\u2019s up to his majesty to answer on such questions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n But he added: \u201cWe have a very good relationship, you know. Today, in the morning, when I spoke by phone with my wife, with all respect to Keir [Starmer], but my wife said best regards to his majesty first, of course, and then to the prime minister, of course. So of course, we, and Ukraine, love his majesty.\u201d<\/p>\n Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, and Princess Anne are the only working members of the royal family to have visited Ukraine since 2022.<\/p>\n However, Prince Harry has been on three separate occasions, including last September, when he said he wanted to do \u201ceverything possible\u201d<\/a> to help the recovery of thousands of military personnel in the war.<\/p>\n Last March, the king invited Zelenskyy to his Norfolk estate<\/a>, Sandringham, as the UK demonstrated its \u201cunwavering\u201d \u00adsupport after the Ukrainian leader\u2019s humiliation at the hands of Donald Trump and JD Vance<\/a> in the White House. The two heads of state first met in 2023 <\/a>at Buckingham Palace.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.theguardian.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Volodymyr Zelenskyy has revealed that he plans to invite King Charles on a state visit to Ukraine as early as this year, which would make him the most senior royal to travel to Kyiv since Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion.
