Ukraine's Foreign Ministry: No Embassy Has Notified Kyiv of Relocation Plans

1 min read

Ukraine's Foreign Ministry spokesperson stated Saturday that no foreign diplomatic mission has formally notified Ukrainian authorities of plans to relocate embassies from Kyiv, pushing back against a Guardian report citing diplomats who said some Western missions were privately developing contingency plans to move to Lviv or eastern Poland if security conditions deteriorated. The Foreign Ministry clarified it could not comment on foreign governments' internal deliberations, but had received no formal notification. Maintaining embassy presence in Kyiv carries symbolic importance as a signal of international support during the war.
