Prince Harry visits Ukraine

Prince Harry visits Ukraine

Speaking at the Kyiv Security Forum, Prince Harry drew on his experience as a soldier to highlight the human cost of the conflict.

His remarks touched off a swift reaction from President Donald Trump, who retorted that the Duke 'is not speaking for the UK.' The visit comes at a delicate time for transatlantic relations, with the Trump administration questioning the level of support provided by NATO allies.

Harry's presence in the Ukrainian capital has been seen as a significant gesture of solidarity, even as it draws him further into the political fray.
