Zelenskyy emphasized that he discussed with Costa the "vision of European and global affairs – current challenges and prospects" and noted the symbolism of the new EU leadership beginning its work.
"Peace is the main goal, and we will continue to do everything possible to end this war, which Russia has unleashed not only against Ukraine but also against a united Europe, as soon as possible, and to strengthen Europe – both EU institutions and the policy that supports every European nation," he added.
With the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas, Zelenskyy discussed the need for air defense systems "to protect lives in Ukraine."
"We coordinate our efforts for the necessary joint results," the president emphasized.
