Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he had traveled to Czechia with the First Lady for an official visit.

Zelensky stated that meetings were scheduled with President Petr Pavel and Prime Minister Petr Fiala, as well as with the speakers of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate, leaders of parliamentary groups, defense industry executives, students, and the Ukrainian community.

"Most importantly, we express our gratitude for Czechia's principled support and its commitment to strengthening our cooperation. The Czech artillery initiative has proven effective, and we will continue this effort. Another area of cooperation is the development of our military aviation, the expansion of pilot training programs, and the support of our F-16 fleet. Together with Czechia and other members of the aviation coalition, we are preparing good news for Ukraine. Of course, we will also address our joint diplomatic pressure on Russia to achieve a lasting ceasefire and an end to the war."
