Biden 'Should Come to See' the Situation in Ukraine, President Zelenskyy Says

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on U.S. President Joe Biden to visit the war-torn country in an interview with CNN on Sunday.

"I think he's the leader of the United States and that's why he should come here to see," Zelenskyy said.

"It's his decision, of course," Zelenskyy said, adding that any plans would depend on the security situation, but that he thought it likely Biden would come at some point.

Washington has reportedly been considering sending Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin or Secretary of State Antony Blinken to visit Ukraine, which, if true, would make it unlikely Biden himself would travel to the country in the immediate future.

Zelenskyy welcomed the $800 million aid package approved by Biden last week, but that Ukraine "needs more."
