The former vice president’s visit was to discuss matters of mutual interest between the two countries and to reaffirm U.S. support for Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict with Russia.
Republican presidential candidate and former U.S. Vice President Mike Pence speaks during a Celebrate Life Day rally outside the Lincoln Memorial on June 24, 2023 in Washington, D.C. Former Vice President Mike Pence visited Ukraine on Thursday, meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and touring the war-torn country as it fights Russian aggression.
Pence spent roughly 12 hours in the country Thursday, according to an adviser, with stops in Moshchun, Bucha and Irpin, according to NBC News, which traveled with him. Pence also participated in a commemoration ceremony to honor Ukrainians killed during the defense of Moshchun during Russia’s offensive and visited the destroyed Romanov Bridge, where he was briefed on the civilian evacuation efforts.
Pence's GOP rivals have been far less eager to push for more U.S. involvement in Ukraine, reflecting broader skepticism within the party.
