In Dublin, on the sidelines of the European Political Community Summit, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev.

The leaders discussed assistance for Ukraine’s energy sector and logistical support. Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized that the situation is very difficult in many Ukrainian cities right now, and it is clear which facilities can become targets of new Russian attacks.

The Head of State briefed Micheál Martin on the situation on the front line and on how difficult it is to restore Ukraine’s infrastructure after Russian strikes. The President thanked Ireland for the support packages it provides. The leaders agreed that Ireland will play an active role in the Shelter Coalition.

First of all, I thank Ireland for its unwavering support for our people, support for Ukraine, and support for our defense. We have always received Ireland’s full understanding of what is happening in Ukraine and, most importantly, of how unjust Russia’s aggression is – against all of us, against Ukraine and against normal, peaceful life in Europe.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy became the first foreign leader to address Danish parliamentarians from the rostrum of the Folketing (the Danish Parliament).

Thank you for giving us the confidence that, at any moment, Denmark stands with us, with Ukraine, with our people, with our children, with our soldiers – and that Denmark truly wants the best for Ukraine.

In Copenhagen, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, King Frederik X of Denmark, His Royal Highness Crown Prince Christian, and Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen met with around 70 representatives of Danish companies producing defense and civilian goods.
