Prince Harry arrived unannounced in Kiev, where he called for an end to the war and more active involvement from the USA

Prince Harry made an unannounced visit to Kyiv on Thursday, a week after a massive Russian airstrike on Ukraine. During a security forum, Harry delivered a strong speech, calling for an end to the conflict and preventing loss of life. Although the British royal family usually avoids political positions, Harry took a direct tone, demanding more active involvement from the United States in ending the war.

He emphasized Europe's consistent support for Ukraine and called for coordinated global actions. A former military man, Harry praised the resilience of Ukrainians and the use of modern technologies in warfare. During his two-day visit, he will visit the HALO Trust organization and meet with Ukrainian veterans involved in the Invictus Games Foundation. Harry stated that he is there as a soldier, humanitarian, and friend of Ukraine, warning that the world should not get used to the conflict. This visit marks one of the most direct public interventions by a member of the British royal family on the issue of the war in Ukraine.
