President of Ukraine

Current events

The Presidents of Ukraine and France also coordinated their positions and next steps. The leaders share a clear vision that real and lasting peace is possible through the cooperation of Ukraine, all of Europe, and the United States.

According to the President, first of all, everyone must make sure that Russia, as the sole source of this war, accepts the need to end it. This can be proved by two forms of silence that are easy to establish and monitor: no attacks on energy and other civilian infrastructure, namely a truce on missiles, bombs and long-range drones, and a truce on the water, meaning the cessation of military operations in the Black Sea.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen and President of the European Council António Costa in Brussels.

The Head of State expressed gratitude for the support of Belgium and Belgian people, particularly for the decision to provide F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine and for the training of Ukrainian pilots and technical personnel.
