Zelensky may attend G7 summit in Hiroshima depending on battlefield situation - Zhovkva

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may attend the G7 summit in Hiroshima, which will begin on Thursday, if the situation on the battlefield allows.

Ihor Zhovkva, deputy head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, told this to the Japanese news agency Kyodo.

Commenting on the possibility of Zelensky's trip to Japan, Zhovkva said: "We will make a final decision depending on the situation on the battlefield."

He added that the president would definitely take part in the G7 summit, although it is not yet clear in what format.

Zelensky in March accepted an invitation from Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida to participate in the G7 summit in May in an online format.
