The visit began in Lviv, where Albares met with representatives of the Ukrainian authorities. His agenda included diplomatic negotiations, support for recovery, and humanitarian initiatives. Special attention was given to cultural revival, which was reflected in the opening of a new cultural center. This space, created with the support of Spain and UNESCO, aims to promote cultural development even amid wartime challenges.

A significant emphasis was placed on financial assistance, which has already exceeded 100 million euros in humanitarian contributions and 400 million allocated for the country's recovery. Additionally, during a visit to a Lviv hospital, Albares announced the dispatch of Spanish medical professionals to assist local doctors.

An important part of the visit was a meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart Andriy Sibiga, where the parties discussed the security situation and the continuation of military assistance, which includes arms supplies and training for Ukrainian soldiers in Spain. As part of this support, approximately 7,000 military personnel have already been trained.

The minister also confirmed unwavering support for Ukraine's Euro-integration path, noting that Spain has been and remains a proponent of its accession to the European Union. He emphasized that peaceful resolution is impossible without considering Ukraine's position, and Europe's security is inextricably linked to Ukrainian sovereignty.

Concluding the visit, Albares honored the memory of the deceased at a cemetery in Lviv and visited the historical center of the city along with representatives from UNESCO and the Ukrainian government. He also toured the artistic space FestRepúblik, symbolizing the resilience of culture in the face of wartime challenges.
