Recall: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported that one of Ukraine’s “main” Western partners is expected to visit Kyiv. On February 20, a number of streets were blocked in the capital, in particular, near the railway station and the US Embassy, however, the Foreign Ministry has not yet said who exactly they are waiting for.
Later, according to the photo and video of eyewitnesses that appeared on the network, it became obvious that US President Joseph Biden had arrived in the capital of Ukraine.
