According to the President, the main topic of the negotiations was the strengthening of diplomatic efforts to achieve peace and a more active role for Europe in this process.

First and foremost, about how to ensure that diplomacy for peace is intensified and that Europe is part of it. All partners note that Ukraine's position is significantly stronger – both on the battlefield and in our long-range capabilities. This is significant, and it is precisely this pressure of ours that can encourage correct and effective diplomacy 

The parties also agreed on a meeting of national security advisors in the near future.

We are monitoring everything related to their political and military intentions. Our intelligence-level teams will exchange available information in more detail 

In addition, communication with the American side was discussed during the conversation.

We are doing everything to ensure there is a real peace
