Advisor to the Head of the Presidential Office Yuriy Katsion held a meeting with representatives of the government, banking sector, and non-governmental organizations to discuss prospects for implementing sustainable development financing mechanisms in Ukraine. Yuriy Katsion noted that although the full-scale Russian invasion has slowed the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it has not stopped the process.

The parties discussed diplomatic efforts to achieve a just and lasting peace, as well as preparations for negotiations with the Russian side.

Words do not work with Moscow. Even the so-called “memorandum,” which they promised and allegedly spent over a week preparing – no one has seen it yet. It has not been shared with Ukraine. They are doing everything to ensure the meetings are meaningless. And that is yet another reason why there should be sufficient sanctions, sufficient pressure on Russia.
