During the conversation, they discussed the exchange of information regarding recent international contacts, as well as the outcomes of the visit of the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky to Washington.
Sybiga emphasized the consequences of Russian aggression, which extend far beyond Ukraine.

The parties agreed to maintain close contact in the future.
