PRZEMYSL, Poland (Reuters) -Ukrainian refugee Viktoria Lysykh had one message for world leaders after she crossed the border into Poland on Friday: "I want the war to end as soon as possible ... In what way exactly? By any means."

The 35-year-old arrived in Przemysl railway station with her teenage daughter and their two pet cats, as U.S President Joe Biden was preparing to visit the same frontier region to discuss the conflict with his Polish counterpart.
