Brian Fitzpatrick, a member of the US House of Representatives from the Republican Party, made an unannounced visit to Ukraine.
This was revealed by President Volodymyr Zelensky in a post on the social network X, as reported by "European Truth".
Zelensky mentioned that he discussed with Fitzpatrick "efforts to establish a dignified and lasting peace, the American proposal for a complete and unconditional ceasefire, and security guarantees for Ukraine".
"Brian Fitzpatrick is planning a trip to the front lines to meet our soldiers. This is highly valuable. Thank you for your support!" – added Zelensky.
The congressman himself did not announce his trip to Ukraine and had not publicized such plans in recent days. In a video released by Zelensky's press service, he noted that he visited Kyiv after trips to Turkey and Poland.
Last month, Fitzpatrick, along with colleagues, introduced a bipartisan resolution affirming the US position of non-recognition of Russian claims to occupied Ukrainian territories.
He was also one of the few Republican congressmen who publicly supported Zelensky after Donald Trump referred to him as a "dictator without elections".
