The key topic of the negotiations in Brussels is security guarantees for Ukraine. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced this before the meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
“It is very important to use these two days in Brussels to meet with all our partners and have the same, and very importantly, not divided – the same, common European position on how to secure Ukraine, how to strengthen our people and, of course, make our army,” said the Head of State.
During the meeting, special attention was paid to the strengthening of Ukrainian air defense, especially now, during the winter.
“We have to do what is necessary now to make sure that when it comes to air defense, to other weapons systems, we are doing everything we can to provide everything we can. We are aware of your request to supply Ukraine with 19 systems to protect critical infrastructure. So this will all be on the agenda,” said the NATO Secretary General.
Mark Rutte added that another important topic of the negotiations is the economy of Ukraine. According to him, the example of Denmark and Lithuania regarding the purchase of Ukrainian weapons is very important in this direction.
“This is good news because it means more weapons for Ukraine, as well as money for the Ukrainian economy. So this is a very practical way to support you,” he concluded.
In Brussels, Volodymyr Zelenskyi and Mark Rutte will also meet with leaders, heads of government and other representatives of European countries.
