Details: The ambassadors, he added, saw houses destroyed by Russian strikes, frontline trenches, an underground school shelter, critical infrastructure, major industrial facilities, and honoured fallen Ukrainian defenders at the Tree of Life memorial.

Quote: "Such visits provide a new understanding of how people live in Ukraine, what they go through, and what their most pressing needs are. They provide diplomats with new motivation to be more persuasive and achieve more tangible results."

Details:Sybiha also noted that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy would open the Ambassadors’ Conference on Monday 21 July, titled From the Strength of Diplomacy to the Diplomacy of Strength.

Background:

• On Sunday 20 July, Zelenskyy stated that he had received a report from Sybiha, which led to them agreeing on replacement of the heads of several embassies.
• Olha Stefanishyna, former deputy prime minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration, is expected to become Ukraine’s new ambassador to the US.
