Volodymyr Zelensky's motorcade is now on its way to Thingvellir after the president went down to the center of Reykjavík directly after he arrived in the country. Helicopters fly with the convoy, as well as police blocking the road so that traffic for the convoy is clear.

This is his first official visit to the country, but he will have a meeting with Prime Minister Bjarni Benediktsson at Thingvellir and take part in the fourth Nordic-Ukraine summit tomorrow at Reykjavík City Hall and Smiðja.

In an announcement earlier today, Zelensky said that the talks will focus on support for the so-called Victory Plan and those aspects where cooperation between the nations can achieve the most.

He mentions the financing of Ukrainian arms production and long-range weapons, preparations for winter, security at sea, sanctions against Russia's shadow fleet, increased defense assistance, and training and equipment for Ukrainian forces.

He says that the Nordic countries are a staunch ally of Ukraine and that the consultation forum between Ukraine and the Nordic countries is one of the most effective multilateral forums.
