The Prime Minister of Latvia, Eika Silina, has arrived in Ukraine on a working visit. Her visit will last until September 13, according to the press service of the Latvian government.

During the trip, Silina will meet with Ukrainian officials and take part in discussions on further military, political, humanitarian, and financial support for Ukraine, as well as its path to joining the European Union and NATO.

The Prime Minister of Latvia stressed the importance of supporting the Ukrainian people, who are heroically and selflessly defending themselves against evil, protecting not only their land but also European values and security. Latvia, he says, clearly and unwaveringly supports Ukraine in its fight against the aggressor.

In turn, Silinia posts a video of her arrival in the Ukrainian capital on X.

"Morning in Kyiv. Latvia will stand with the Ukrainian people until they win, and will always support Ukraine on its path to the European Union and NATO! Glory to Ukraine!" she writes.

This week, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and US Foreign Secretary David Lammy will also visit Ukraine. They will demonstrate solidarity with Kyiv against the backdrop of Russia's invasion.
