Following talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has announced his arrival in Kyiv.

I have arrived in Ukraine after visiting Moscow.

We will continue our work to expand humanitarian support & secure the evacuation of civilians from conflict zones.

The sooner this war ends, the better – for the sake of Ukraine, Russia, and the world.
