According to the Telegram channel of Ukrainian Prosecutor General's Office, Leo Varadkar, the Prime Minister of Ireland, has arrived in Ukraine on an official visit. He has already visited the town of Bucha, which was affected by Russian crimes, and met with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

During his visit to Bucha, Attorney General Andriy Kostin informed the Irish Prime Minister about Russian crimes and mass killings of civilians during the occupation of the town.

"He noted that the systematic nature of these crimes indicates that the aggressor targets Ukrainians based on their national identity and pro-Ukrainian stance. Similar cases have been documented in other liberated cities," the press service writes.
