President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a phone call with Federal Chancellor of Austria Christian Stocker.
The Chancellor expressed his condolences over the ongoing Russian aerial attacks. The President thanked him for his support and informed him about our intelligence data indicating that the Russians are preparing a new massive strike against Ukrainian cities and communities.
“It is very important that partners provide joint responses to these attacks, primarily through the supply of anti-ballistic capabilities,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized.

The President emphasized that this would be a fair decision, one Ukrainians deserve. The Head of State thanked Austria for its absolute support for this position.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Christian Stocker also discussed cooperation within international organizations. The President of Ukraine instructed the diplomatic team to work through the relevant issues with Austrian counterparts at their level.
