For Volodymyr Zelenskyj, traveling abroad is a delicate and complex matter for security reasons alone. The Ukrainian president has been one of the most endangered people in the world since Russia’s war of conquest began more than four years ago. He can only fly under organized military protection and often with the help of NATO states. He originally only wanted to take part in the informal EU summit of heads of state and government in Cyprus, which is currently holding the EU presidency, via video conference.
