British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, U.S. President Joe Biden and leaders from other Group of Seven countries are expected to hold online talks with Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy later Sunday to discuss the further support.
Marking Victory in Europe Day, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said in a televised address that Sunday was “a May 8th like no other.”
Scholz also spoke about Germany’s efforts to support Ukraine since the invasion, including sending heavy weapons. He said he understood some Germans’ concerns that the war could spread further west, but that while their fears are valid, “fear must not paralyze us.” German Bundestag President Bärbel Bas, the second highest-ranking German official after the president, met Sunday with Zelenskyy in Kyiv and attended a memorial event honoring the anniversary of the end of World War II. German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock is also expected to visit in the coming days.
