As Russia's war in Ukraine hits 1,000 days, a parliamentary inquiry has found a 'strong case' for Australia to reopen its embassy in the capital Kyiv.
Australia should reopen its embassy in Ukraine and set up a "one-stop-shop" to ensure aid is managed efficiently, a parliamentary inquiry says. As Russia's invasion reaches 1000 days, a report tabled in parliament on Tuesday recommended the foreign affairs department re-open Australia's embassy in Kyiv — inclusive of an Australian military attache.
Ukrainian ambassador to Australia Vasyl Myroshnychenko said military aid and support from the West, including Australia, had been vital for Kyiv's ability to repel the Kremlin's invasion. "It has been essential for us and vital to make sure we can defend ourselves," he said. He added that Russia's deployment of North Korean troops to the frontlines in Ukraine showed how the war impacted the Indo-Pacific security dynamics.
