Pedro Sánchez called King Felipe VI this morning to inform him of the new travel recommendations to Ukraine adopted today at the meeting of EU ambassadors in Kiev, according to Moncloa, who recalled that the President of the Government maintains constant communication with the monarch about the crisis unleashed in Eastern Europe.

Likewise, Sánchez has contacted the leader of the opposition, Pablo Casado, whom he has thanked for his support, while the second vice president, Yolanda Díaz, has informed the partners of the government coalition.

As reported by Moncloa, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, José Manuel Albares, will inform the spokesmen of the parliamentary groups.

Precisely today the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has updated its recommendations and advises against traveling to Ukraine due to the "volatile" security situation in the country due to the rise in tensions with Russia, while at the same time recommending that Spaniards residing there consider "seriously" the possibility of abandoning it "temporarily".

The Ministry, which has updated this Saturday the recommendations for traveling to Ukraine on its website, urges the Spanish community in Ukraine, made up of some 500 compatriots, to leave the country through the commercial means available "while the current circumstances persist" .

Specifically, this Saturday sources from the Ministry have confirmed to Europa Press that Spain is "prepared" to activate the evacuation device in Ukraine while asking to remain calm.

At the moment, the situation is being "analyzed" but this evacuation device is "ready" to be activated "if necessary".

In this sense, the same sources have confirmed that many other EU and NATO countries have decided "not to change anything at the moment" and maintain the same position as Spain.
