These security commitments will reinforce Ukraine’s progress towards future membership in the Euro-Atlantic community, including the EU and NATO, which is the ultimate goal and the most reliable guarantee of security.

Recent events in Russia show that it can no longer exist in its current form, and the international community should not be afraid of the replacement of Putin's regime. This opinion was expressed by Mykhailo Podolyak, Advisor to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, in an interview with the Atlantic Council's UkraineAlert.

Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Ihor Zhovkva held an online conversation with the newly appointed Diplomatic Advisor to the Prime Minister of Norway, Director of the International Department of the Prime Minister's Office Kjersti Andersen, for whom it was the first international conversation in her new position.

On behalf of the Head of State, Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak had a phone call with National Security Advisor of the Republic of India Ajit Kumar Doval.

Andriy Yermak emphasized that Ukraine's membership in NATO is the most reliable guarantee of security, but while the war is ongoing in our country and we cannot join the Alliance, the Ukrainian state must secure reliable guarantees for the transition period.

According to him, each point of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's Peace Formula is currently being discussed individually and in groups with representatives of more than 50 countries on an almost weekly basis.

In pulling out of the Black Sea Grain Initiative, which made it possible to export Ukrainian agricultural products to the most vulnerable countries in the world, and attacking the port of Odesa, the Russian Federation is setting the stage for a global food crisis. This is stated in a joint article by Oleg Ustenko, an economic advisor to the President of Ukraine, and Simon Johnson, Professor at the MIT Sloan School of Management, former chief economist of the IMF, for the American newspaper Los Angeles Times.

Yermak told the interlocutor about the preparation of another meeting of national security advisors to state leaders regarding the implementation of Ukraine's initiatives to restore sustainable and just peace based on respect for the UN Charter and international law.

Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak held a meeting of the Presidium of the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities under the President of Ukraine, at which preparations for the next meeting of the Congress were discussed and its agenda was approved.

The meeting, which took place on the Day of Ukrainian Statehood in the premises of the Verkhovna Rada, was dedicated to the implementation of the Peace Formula of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in particular the clause regarding respect for the UN Charter, the restoration of Ukraine's territorial integrity and the world order.
