Zelensky signs security agreements with Italy and Canada

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed separate security deals with the prime ministers of Italy and Canada on Saturday, as a group of Western leaders was in Kiev to express their solidarity on the second anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

"Ukraine is definitely stronger now than it was two years ago," Zelensky wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter, announcing the deal signed together with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

"Our meetings with Italian Prime Minister @GiorgiaMeloniare always meaningful," the Ukrainian leader said in a separate post announcing the agreement.
