New Zealand Prime Minister Chris Luxon is open to a proposed "Anzac" political mission to Kiev alongside Anthony Albanese, suggesting the pair have spoken about making it a possibility.
Ukraine Ambassador Vasyl Myroshnychenko has invited the pair to visit this European summer, alongside other international summits.
Speaking in Wellington on Wednesday, Mr Luxon said he received the invitation "a couple of weeks back" and it was under consideration.
"It's something we will continue to look at and consider, if and when we can," he said.
Mr Luxon said logistics were the major sticking point, as he would want to piggyback other bilateral or international gatherings given the long travel.
"If Anthony can do the same and we can make it work for both of us, we'd be open to it," he said.
"It's a great invitation. We appreciate it."
Mr Albanese has visited Ukraine, making a two-day visit in July 2022, however Mr Luxon has not done so since taking office in 2023.
The Australian prime minister held talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on the sidelines of Pope Leo XIV's inauguration at the Vatican earlier in May.
Australia is looking to strike two agreements with Ukraine: one on security and one on the elimination of double taxation.
