Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will not visit Armenia and Azerbaijan, according to Radar Armenia.

"President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, contrary to earlier rumors, will not arrive in the region - neither Armenia nor Azerbaijan - due to the cancellation of his visit to Baku," the report says.

Earlier it was reported that Volodymyr Zelenskyy would visit Yerevan and Baku in March.

Armenia and Ukraine relations

Armenia does not support Russia's invasion of Ukraine and periodically states its position.

Recently, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said that Armenia is not an ally of Russia on the issue of Ukraine. The politician recalled international law on the recognition of state borders and emphasized the friendliness of Armenians to the Ukrainian people.

Armenia also handed over another batch of humanitarian aid to Ukraine. Yerevan handed over about 10 tons of medicines and medical supplies.

And in October, during a visit to Italy, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan for the first time.
