Ukrainian MP and European Solidarity party leader Petro Poroshenko has been denied permission to travel abroad to attend the Spanish People’s Party (PP) congress in Madrid and the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Rome, according to the political force’s website. This decision has raised questions about the extent of Poroshand’s international political engagement and the reasons behind the restriction.
The Spanish People’s Party (PP), a major political force in Spain, is expected to hold its congress in Madrid, where leaders and members will discuss the party’s future direction and policies. The Ukraine Recovery Conference in Rome, scheduled for July 10-11, aims to address the ongoing challenges faced by Ukraine in its recovery efforts following the Russian invasion. Participants from various international organizations, government officials, and business leaders are expected to attend.
Poroshenko’s exclusion from these events has sparked speculation about internal political dynamics within the European Solidarity party, which he leads. Some analysts suggest that the decision could be related to ongoing political tensions within the party or broader international relations considerations. Poroshenko, a former president of Ukraine, has been a vocal advocate for closer ties with Western nations, particularly the European Union and NATO.
His absence from the PP congress and the Ukraine Recovery Conference may impact his ability to strengthen alliances and promote Ukraine’s interests on the global stage. The decision to deny his travel has also raised questions about the transparency of the internal discussions within the European Solidarity party. As preparations for both events continue, the political implications of Poroshenko’s exclusion remain a topic of discussion among experts and political commentators.
