There are no plans for Biden to visit Kyiv after UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson's surprise visit to Ukraine, national security advisor says

• Jake Sullivan says that Biden "looks forward" to visiting Kyiv, Ukraine but does not have a trip planned.

• "President Biden doesn't currently have any plans to travel to Kyiv," Sullivan told "Meet the Press" on Sunday.

• It comes after UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson made a surprise visit on Saturday.

US national security advisor Jake Sullivan on Sunday told NBC's "Meet the Press" that a visit to Kyiv, Ukraine is not planned for President Joe Biden.

During an appearance on the program, moderator Chuck Todd asked Sullivan if Biden would make the trip after UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson made a surprise visit over the weekend.

In a tweet on Saturday, Johnson confirmed that he met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and said, "we're setting out a new package of financial & military aid, which is a testament of our commitment to his country's struggle against Russia's barbaric campaign."

In response to Todd's question, Sullivan said, "President Biden doesn't currently have any plans to travel to Kyiv."

"But what I will tell you is he sits in the Oval Office and in the Situation Room on a daily basis, organizing and coordinating the world when it comes to the delivery of weapons," Sullivan continued. "And you heard from the Ukrainian foreign minister; no one has given more than the United States. And the United States is at the center of the effort to deliver from other countries."

Last month, Biden traveled to Europe to meet with world allies to discuss efforts to support Ukraine after Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded the country in late February. In addition, he also made a stop in Poland to survey the refugee crisis.

During the interview, Sullivan said Biden "looks forward" to heading to Kyiv again, but the administration is not "currently planning a trip."
