Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has arrived in Berlin for only his third visit to
Germany since Russia’s all-out invasion of his country nearly two years ago.
Zelensky was welcomed by Chancellor Olaf Scholz in front of the Chancellery building, where the two leaders shook hands and briefly posed for photographers.
Zelensky was expected to sign bilateral security agreements with Germany and France on Friday.
Following his meeting in Berlin, Zelensky was due to travel on to Paris.
Zelensky would attend the Munich Security Conference on Saturday to rally Western political and defence leaders for more military support.
