On February 8, 2025, Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Ruslan Stefanchuk responded to President Volodymyr Zelensky’s criticism regarding the frequent foreign trips of Ukrainian MPs, particularly their attendance at the National Prayer Breakfast in the United States, Suspilne reports.
Speaking at the conference “Ukraine’s Accession to the EU: Shaping the Transformational Agenda”, Stefanchuk emphasized that Ukraine currently faces the crucial task of resetting its relations with its strategic partner, the United States.
"And we are doing this systematically at all levels, absolutely all levels. Including at the level of restoring our relations with the U.S. Congress and Senate. That is why a large delegation of, I believe, 37 people attended, with half representing the opposition and the other half from the ruling majority," Stefanchuk said.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that Zelensky had criticized MPs' trip to the National Prayer Breakfast in the U.S.
