Andriy Yermak Held a Meeting With the National Security Advisor to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom
The Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Andriy Yermak, held a meeting with the National Security Advisor to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Jonathan Powell, in Kyiv.
The meeting took place as a follow-up to the joint work with partners to develop a plan for achieving a just and lasting peace, and in anticipation of the upcoming meeting between Ukrainian and American teams in Saudi Arabia.
In particular, the discussion focused on the initial steps proposed by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the European Council meeting in Brussels. These include silence in the sky and at sea: cessation of attacks on energy and civilian infrastructure, as well as naval military operations, and the release of prisoners.
The Head of the Presidential Office also presented proposals from France and the Nordic and Baltic countries.
In addition, Andriy Yermak and Jonathan Powell exchanged views on key issues in the path toward peace: security guarantees, conditions under which a ceasefire will be possible, and the preservation of sanctions against the Russian Federation.
Special emphasis was placed on increasing military and financial support for Ukraine and European defense capabilities.
Andriy Yermak thanked the United Kingdom for continuing its defense support and emphasized the importance of increasing the volume of this assistance, particularly to finance the production of UAVs in Ukraine and Europe.
