President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky held a meeting with representatives of leading think tanks in Europe and the United States
Rubryka informs about this, referring to the OPU's press service.
It should be noted that the Polish Institute of International Affairs organized the visit of representatives to our country.
The OPU emphasized that President Zelensky expressed gratitude to the group of experts for visiting Kyiv during the war, which is another proof of the strong support of Ukraine from the free democratic world.
The head of state noted that thanks to such solidarity, our country has already won a number of important victories over the invaders and will be able to liberate its territory completely.
"We will win thanks to the supply of weapons and strict sanctions against the russian aggressor. In particular, we will beat the famine that russia provoked by blocking Ukrainian ports.
But the main thing is the unity of the civilized world. The work of experts and scientists should contribute to this," Volodymyr Zelensky emphasized.
Volodymyr Zelensky insisted on the need to recognize russia as a state sponsor of terrorism for all the crimes it has already committed and is committing in Ukraine.
"For us, this issue is fundamental and obvious. After Bucha, Mariupol, Vinnytsia, Olenivka. After shelling of critical infrastructure facilities," the President said.

The President emphasized the need to increase defense support for Ukraine from the partner states. For Ukraine, according to the head of the country, the acquisition of air defense systems is critically important in this regard.
"The targeted attacks by the russian aggressor on critical infrastructure facilities confirm the validity of our requests. The democratic world must provide us with the necessary defense and financial assistance.
As soon as possible. This is important not only for us but also for the world. Otherwise, all states to the west of Ukraine will be under threat. The sooner we receive such help, the sooner this war will end," the Head of State said.
During the meeting, there was an exchange of views regarding the package of recommendations on security guarantees for Ukraine prepared by the International Working Group under the leadership of Andriy Yermak and former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen.
The President emphasized that without such guarantees, it is impossible to talk about a stable Europe.
Particular attention was paid to the reconstruction of Ukraine, creating a compensation mechanism for russia to compensate for the damage caused by its invasion, and establishing a special tribunal on the crime of russia's aggression.
