President of the Council of Ministers Giorgia Meloni participated in a call this afternoon, organised by the US, with the Heads of State and Government of the United States, Italy, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, Poland and Romania, NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg, President Michel of the European Council and President von der Leyen of the European Commission.

President Biden reassured the Allies of continued US support for Ukraine, also following the recent decisions by the United States Congress.

The leaders confirmed the urgency of close coordination regarding assistance to Ukraine in all its dimensions during this further stage of the conflict and, at the same time, they reiterated the need to continue to maintain strong pressure on Russia through a framework of sanctions that is proving to be very effective.

President Meloni confirmed that the Italian Government will continue to firmly support the Ukrainian authorities in all areas for as long as it takes and with the goal of achieving a just, lasting and comprehensive peace.
