Suspilne, Ukrinform, and the Guardian report, citing their own sources.

The President's Office is currently awaiting the date of Pope Francis' burial and preparing for Volodymyr Zelenskyy's visit to Rome to bid farewell to the pontiff.

“Expect the diplomatic list to grow rapidly in the coming days, with most countries sending their heads of state or government to pay tribute to Francis – creating potential space for high-level meetings on the margins of the funeral,” The Guardian reports.

It is also known that the leaders of France and the United States, Emmanuel Macron and Donald Trump, will attend the burial ceremony.
