Published on

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said he told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in a phone call on Friday that he would consider an invitation to visit Kiev depending on „various circumstances” but that nothing had been decided yet, Reuters reports, Agerpres reads.

Kishida also reaffirmed Tokyo’s full support for Ukraine in its fight against Russia as Japan assumes the rotating presidency of the group of seven major economies (G7).

„We have strongly condemned Russia’s continued aggression and stated that Japan will do everything possible to provide assistance, including to get through the winter, to protect the lives of the Ukrainian people,” Kishida told reporters.

Earlier, Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno told a regular news conference that Zelenskiy’s presidential chief of staff Andri Iermak had extended an invitation through Tokyo’s ambassador to Kyiv for Kishida to visit Ukraine.

Kishida confirmed that he had received the invitation, but said that nothing had been decided yet.
