Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has arrived in Saudi Arabia for an unannounced visit, as the Middle East war spurs interest among Gulf countries in Ukrainian arms technology, AFP reports.
The two countries are set to sign an agreement on “security cooperation — in particular, the protection of the skies”, a senior official has told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.
“Arrived in Saudi Arabia. Important meetings are scheduled,” Zelensky wrote on social media, publishing a video of him meeting a regional official in Jeddah.
“We appreciate the support and support those who are ready to work with us to ensure security,” Zelensky added.
