Wartime visit/ Zelensky invites JD Vance to Ukraine

President Volodymyr Zelensky invited US Vice President JD Vance to visit Ukraine during a recent phone call, Zelensky said today in an interview with 'Time' magazine.

During a heated debate in the Oval Office on February 28, Zelensky invited Vance to come to Ukraine to see for himself the consequences of the Russian war. Vance responded by saying that he had seen the stories, so he was aware of the situation on the ground.

The US vice president added that he refused to visit Ukraine because the Ukrainian government is suspected of organizing propaganda tours of Russia's destruction in the country.

"We are still waiting for you," Zelensky allegedly told Vance during one of the last calls, but the American official did not answer.

JD Vance has repeatedly criticized Ukraine and Zelensky in the past, sometimes echoing Kremlin talking points. He has also said several times that he doesn't care about Ukraine, including just days after Russia began its full-scale invasion.

Washington and Kiev previously supported a broader 30-day ceasefire that would also halt ground operations, but Moscow rejected the proposal unless it included a suspension of foreign military support for Ukraine and other conditions that would weaken Kiev's defenses.

A new round of US-Russia talks on a ceasefire in Ukraine began in Riyadh on March 24. The meeting, held a day after the US-Ukraine talks, is expected to focus on a ceasefire in the Black Sea and broader ceasefire negotiations. /CNA
