Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky discussed coordination efforts with partners ahead of the upcoming meeting in Abu Dhabi during a telephone conversation with Finnish President Alexander Stubb.

Commenting on the conversation, Zelensky said, "We are coordinating our efforts ahead of the meeting in Abu Dhabi. We need to demonstrate strong and united positions with our partners. Our top priority is to end the war."

Emphasizing the importance of a just and lasting peace, Zelensky stated, "There must be no alternative to a just and lasting peace. Security guarantees must be real. Russia must understand that for any war it starts, it will have to pay a heavy price as the aggressor."
