ADVERTISEMENTFresh from her state of the union speech, EU chief Ursula von der Leyen has travelled to Kyiv to reinforce the bloc's support for Ukraine.
She is due to meet Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Denys Shmyhal, the country's prime minister.
The meeting was expected to focus on how to unite Ukraine and Europe to progress the country's accession to the European Union.
