Denys Shmyhal noted that the purpose of the meeting was to elaborate and formulate a framework of issues related to security guarantees in advance of the Coalition of the Willing meeting at the level of state leaders.

“After the recent attacks on Kyiv, we heard resolute statements from all our partners about assuming genuine responsibility for Ukraine’s long-term security once agreements on a just peace are in place,” stated the Minister of Defence of Ukraine.

He expressed gratitude to the United Kingdom and France for their leadership, to NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte for his personal contribution to supporting Ukraine, and to all genuine friends and partners for their assistance to Ukraine at this critical moment.
