 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says he is grateful to the people of Utah. Speaking Friday to hundreds attending the National Governors Association summer meeting, he called on America to continue its support of Ukraine. He also thanked Utahns for their unwavering support of his country and its people. It was his first visit to Utah since Russia declared war on Ukraine, arriving in Salt Lake City immediately after his trip to the NATO summit in Washington, D.C. Security at the city's Grand America Hotel during the leader's visit was heightened, as attendees were required to pass through metal detectors and have their bags searched.
