Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will travel to Hiroshima, Japan, to take part live in the G7 summit on Sunday, Kiev said, confirming a report by US news agency Bloomberg. It was previously known that Zelensky participated in the G7 summit via video conference.
Zelensky will travel to Japan for the G7 summit in Hiroshima, a Ukrainian security official said on state television. “Very important things will be decided there and therefore the presence of our president is absolutely necessary in order to defend our interests,” said Oleksiy Danilov.
The visit to Hiroshima, ground zero for the first nuclear attack 78 years ago, is particularly symbolic given Russian President Vladimir Putin’s threats to use atomic weapons in Ukraine.
G7 leaders will hold talks on the war in Ukraine during meetings starting on Friday. Bloomberg reported that the countries they will target Russian diamonds, agreeing to track them across bordersbut they won’t hit Moscow with a complete ban on the lucrative gem trade just yet.
Zelensky will fly to Japan on a US military aircraft after stopping in Saudi Arabia to attend the Arab League summit.
