In the footage, Biden can be seen exiting St. Michael’s Cathedral in central Kyiv, during the commencement of an air raid alarm.
Rumors of his arrival were noted by Julian Röpcke, a journalist for the German newspaper Bild.
"Biden is in Kyiv,” Röpcke wrote.
“The city that has supposed to be under Russian control for 360 days. What a strong signal for the dictator Putin.”
Officially, Biden is expected to be in Poland for a three-day visit ahead of the Feb. 24 anniversary of the full-scale Russian invasion.
Biden is not the only foreign dignitary in Kyiv — Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, and a parliamentary delegation from Israel, have all been reported to have arrived in Kyiv.
Earlier, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry reported a surprise visit from one of Ukraine's closest partner nations. The center of Kyiv was closed for traffic in the morning on Feb. 20.
