According to the President, the trilateral format was constructive and quite substantive.
We managed to discuss the need for and possible parameters of humanitarian steps. The release of prisoners is a priority. We spoke in detail about the substance of security guarantees for Ukraine and the foundation for their long-term operation. Real instruments are needed to block any recurrence of the war. The need for de-escalation steps was also discussed
