  "account": "Six Nordic-Baltic leaders, including Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, visited Kyiv on August 23, 2026, to show their continued support for Ukraine during its ongoing war with Russia. Norway pledged to keep its 2027 assistance for Ukraine at around $9 billion, matching this year's level of aid which covers military, humanitarian, and financial support. Støre emphasized that this support follows Ukrainian priorities and is an investment in Europe's own security. The visit came as Ukraine marked its State Flag Day, commemorating the historic blue-and-yellow flag that Ukrainians carried into Parliament after regaining independence in 1991. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked the Nordic-Baltic leaders for their support, calling Russia's invasions an attempt to take away Ukraine's freedom and independence.",
  "summary": "The visitors joined Ukraine's State Flag Day events ahead of Independence Day, alongside bilateral and multilateral talks with the Ukrainian president.",
