Within the framework of his working visit to the United States, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky had a meeting with U.S. President Joseph Biden.

The negotiations took place in the White House in a narrow and expanded format.

At the beginning of the meeting, the Head of State thanked the American leader for the fruitful dialogue and strong support for all Ukrainians.

“This is already the third time we have met this year. Thank you for the invitation. Our regular dialogue proves that our countries are true allies and strategic friends. We are very grateful for the vital assistance provided by the United States in the fight against Russian terror. Today, I am in Washington to strengthen our coalition to protect our children, families, our homes, as well as freedom and democracy in the world,” Zelensky said.

The President of Ukraine told Joseph Biden about his fruitful meeting with congressmen and senators.

Zelensky and Biden discussed defence support for Ukraine and further cooperation for the benefit of both countries and the world.

“Today, we have achieved important results. We have agreed to work out a number of strategic decisions that will allow us to prevent any new aggression against Ukraine and our people,” the Head of State said and added that it would be one of the results of the G7 Joint Declaration and bilateral security arrangements.

In addition, according to the President, new agreements were reached that will boost Ukraine’s defence capabilities.

Zelensky thanked the U.S. President for announcing a new, powerful package of assistance to Ukraine.

“It is a very powerful package. It is exactly what our soldiers need now,” the Head of State stated.

He expressed hope for further support from the United States in enhancing the protection of Ukrainian skies, expanding opportunities for grain exports, implementing the Peace Formula, and holding the Global Peace Summit.

“I thank you, your team, the Congress, as well as journalists for spreading information to the public, to the world, for sharing the truth about these tragic events, about this Russian aggression. Thank you very much, Mr. President, for this warm meeting with you,” the Head of State said addressing Joseph Biden.

Zelensky noted that today’s talks were powerful and important.

The teams of the two leaders will continue to work on the speedy implementation of the agreements reached today.
