“We just kicked off a historic meeting — more than 40 countries gathered together to help Ukraine win the fight against Russia’s unjust invasion. Our goal is to leave here with a common, transparent understanding of Ukraine’s short-term and long-term security requirements.”
“I’m proud to announce that today’s gathering will become a monthly Contact Group on Ukraine’s self-defense. The Contact Group will be a vehicle for nations of goodwill to intensify efforts, coordinate assistance, and focus on winning today’s fight and the struggles to come.”
