As President of the European Parliament, Metsola has consistently demonstrated her commitment to Ukraine, making frequent visits and holding discussions with President Zelenskyy. She was the first EU institutional leader to visit Kyiv following the Russian invasion on 1 April 2022. Her most recent visit to the Ukrainian capital prior to this was in May 2024, with another meeting with President Zelenskyy on 25 June 2025.

President Metsola emphasised that Europe, like Ukraine, has always sought peace saying, “It is the very reason our Union was founded. But peace must be genuine and enduring a peace that ensures the safety of all. That is why we continue to advocate for robust security guarantees, and why we are working closely with our partners to make them a reality. We are ready, determined, and capable and this is the message we have conveyed to our partners in the United States.”

In recognition of her unwavering support for Ukraine, Metsola was awarded the Ukrainian Order of Merit, First Class, highlighting her dedication to peace, liberty, and European solidarity.
