The Saudi foreign minister visits Kyiv for the first time and signs off on a $400M aid package.

 Saudi’s foreign minister, Prince Faisal Bin Farhan, visited Kyiv on Sunday for meetings with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukrainian counterpart Dmytro Kuleba, and other top officials. This is the first Saudi visit since the two countries established diplomatic relations 30 years ago. Andriy Yermak, chief of Ukraine’s presidential office, told reporters that the officials discussed energy and investment cooperation, possible cooperation on grain exports, and war-related issues such as Saudi help in securing further prisoner swaps with Russia. The officials also signed agreements on $400M in Saudi aid to Ukraine, where $100M will be allocated as humanitarian aid and $300M for oil products.
