Russian shelling of Kyiv intensified Tuesday morning as the leaders of Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovenia were setting out on a trip by train to the Ukrainian capital on a European Union mission to meet with the country’s top leadership.
“In such critical times for the world it is our duty to be where history is forged,” Poland’s Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said in a statement announcing the trip to Kyiv, which had been kept secret for security reasons.
