This was reported by the official website of President of Ukraine.

“Today’s negotiations were very substantive. The priorities are clear – defending Ukraine. Our positions, our warriors, and the fair pressure on Russia for the war. Maintaining the resilience of both Ukraine and all of Europe. Especially relevant now, as winter approaches, is energy – protecting and restoring our infrastructure,” the President said during a joint press conference with the European Commission President.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Ursula von der Leyen discussed in detail the support for Ukraine’s energy sector, including necessary resources and strengthening the protection of critical infrastructure.

The President highlighted the recently announced decision to provide additional EU support for winter preparations, totaling approximately €160 million, with €100 million coming from the revenues of frozen Russian assets.

The Head of State emphasized the need for the full use of frozen Russian assets for the protection of Ukraine from Russian aggression, a clear mechanism for allocating the $50 billion agreed upon at the political level, as well as strengthening sanctions against the aggressor state.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy also underscored the joint efforts to fully implement the Peace Formula. He stated that it is essential to strengthen Ukraine as much as possible in order to hold the second Peace Summit this year.

The leaders also focused on Ukraine's accession to the EU.
