Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrives in Dublin and is set to meet US envoys as Ireland prepares for high-profile EU-related activity. Several outlets report that US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will meet Zelensky in the Irish capital after travelling for talks in Moscow with President Vladimir Putin.
Irish coverage also links Zelensky’s visit to engagements involving Ireland and the EU. The Irish Independent says the Taoiseach tells Ukraine it “deserves our support” and frames the trip around helping secure lasting peace. Other Irish reporting places Zelensky at Government Buildings for talks with the Taoiseach, amid what outlets describe as a large security operation in central Dublin for EU events.
Some coverage emphasises the wider European context, noting European leaders are expected to attend following Zelensky’s arrival ahead of a major EU presidency event. Ukrainska Pravda specifically mentions Zelensky and his team landing in Ireland to take part in the 9th EPC Summit and to hold talks with the US envoys.
