European Union President Ursula Von Der Leyen visits Ukraine to see Bucha massacre victims for herself.

What’s stopping him?

Nothing growstuff. He’s been.

There are pictures of her online at the site Campervanner so we do know she did. As covered by the Daily Mail.

It is unlikely that we know exactly what any visiting politicians are doing or where they are going or who they are meeting due to very tight security. They all deserve respect.

So many Boris bashers on GN, I hope they eat their words now that they know Boris has visited too. And I believe the UK has offered a lot more support than Germany. Our Armed Forces have been training with the Ukrainians for several years and Boris has been staunch in his support, as President Zelensky always acknowledges.

She actually visited the scene of one of the massacres, whereas other leaders have attended meetings. She gets a lot of extra respect for doing that in my book.

Me too, because they're obviously a target.

I am very impressed with any politician who goes to visit a war zone, regardless of gender.

Poland, Slovenia and Czech Republic. And here's another one. Lithuania.

There were three (male) PMs from Eastern Europe that went a few weeks ago.

I think she was a very brave courageous woman. This act stands alone even if she has made mistakes.
How many of the worlds men leaders have been? Boris according to Sky news will they all start now a woman has shown them what should be done?

Ah well, fair play to him.

Mr.Johnson has met with President Zelensky in Kyiv today accusing to Sky News.

Ukraine Embassy has tweeted ‘Surprise’ - it appears Boris has visited Zelensky...

I agree it was very brave of Ursula von der Leyen to go to Ukraine and be so supportive.
Doesn't change the fact that she is incompetent in most other aspects of her very well paid job.

I wish Priti Patel would go, it might encourage her to sort out the refugee debacle in the UK if she could see for herself. In fact I think it should be insisted on.

"It takes a woman doesn't it to do the right thing" AGAA4.

Totally agree, total respect.

She is very brave and I have great respect for her. It takes a woman doesn't it to do the right thing.

Ursula Von Der Leyen meeting Zelenskyy

But he has won the limelight from a truly brave woman on this thread WWM. He will, no doubt, continue to put himself front and centre in this country. And some will still believe the cover he succeeds in getting.

Johnson briefed that he “was desperate to go and see for himself”

She went.

What's stopping him?

Johnson is clear what matters.

His own skin. Always will be.

Her face said it all, didn't it Coastpath.

I think they should follow this up with troops going in to help; perhaps they could discuss a peacekeeping force. They won't, of course, as peacekeepers have been dragged into the fighting in the past.

Very brave of her. Watching her register first hand the horror of it all and hearing her say, 'The unthinkable has happened here' reduced me to tears.

Well done to her. Brave woman and she has seen first -hand the evidence of what is happening.

If only the Russian people could see this.
