Loomer has been close to President Donald Trump and has also criticised US military support for Ukraine, downplayed Russia's full-scale invasion of the country, and claimed that Ukraine is a nation full of people who defend Nazism.

On Thursday she was in Kyiv:

"Experienced my first air raid in Ukraine. Sirens were sounding. It's everyday life for all Ukrainians," Loomer wrote on X, where she is estimated to have two million followers.

In addition, Loomer met with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and wrote after the meeting that "no issues were ruled out."

According to the Presidential Office, the visit to Ukraine took place at Loomer's initiative.
