Rome, May 12 (AFP\/APP): Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected in Rome on Saturday for talks with political leaders and possibly Pope Francis, in his first visit to Italy since Russia’s invasion.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for Italian President Sergio Mattarella confirmed to AFP he would meet Zelensky on Saturday, without providing any further details for security reasons.<\/p>\n

A Vatican source told AFP earlier that a meeting between Zelensky and Pope Francis was also “possible”, although this has not yet been confirmed.<\/p>\n

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, who visited Kyiv in February to emphasise her country’s support for Ukraine, is also likely to meet the Ukrainian president during his trip.<\/p>\n

Meloni hosted Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal in Rome last month, on the occasion of a conference on how Italian businesses could help rebuild the war-torn country.<\/p>\n

It was not clear how long Zelensky would be in Rome, with speculation he is also planning a trip to Germany this weekend.<\/p>\n

German media reported earlier this month that Zelensky will visit Berlin for talks with Chancellor Olaf Scholz and President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.<\/p>\n

German officials have not confirmed the visit, but Berlin police have opened a probe after details of the possible trip attributed to the force appeared in the media.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
