“During this meeting, the key element will certainly be security; steps that need to be taken jointly to raise the price of aggression for Russia in continuing the war; how to force Russia to a just peace; how to force Russia to a truce, what specific additional elements of assistance Ukraine needs,” the head of the MFA listed.
This week, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held talks with British Prime Minister Keir Stumer, during which the parties also discussed holding a meeting of the Coalition of the Willing as part of the summit in Rome.
A coalition of the willing, led by Britain and France, has declared its goal to provide security guarantees to Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire.
The coalition has not held any new meetings since March, due to disagreements over the volume of military aid from the United States and the desire to gain Washington's support for the potential deployment of Western military units in Ukraine.
The Ukraine Recovery Conference URC2025 in Rome will take place from 10 to 11 July.
The event is part of a series of high-level political summits aimed at supporting the rapid recovery and long-term reconstruction of Ukraine following the launch of Russia's full-scale invasion.
