A plane carrying Ukrainian First Lady Olena Zelenska and a 23-member delegation landed at Jaipur International Airport on Sunday for refuelling en route to Japan. The high-level team included Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha and UN envoy Sergiy Kyslytsya. Approved by India's Foreign Ministry, the stop saw protocol exemptions including no frisking or immigration checks. Delegates met Ukrainian Embassy officials and were served refreshments before continuing to Tokyo at 8:15 am. The visit to Japan aims to strengthen ties and seek tougher sanctions on Russia, as well as support for Ukraine’s post-war reconstruction efforts. (PC: NDTV)
