Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba: «I was pleased to welcome Espen Barth Eide on his first visit to Ukraine as Norway's Foreign Minister.

I am grateful to my Norwegian colleague for emphasizing that the shared goal is Ukraine's victory and that all allied efforts must be focused on achieving it. This is the clarity of purpose we require.

We focused primarily on concrete steps to strengthen Ukraine's air defense capabilities, including additional air defense systems and F-16 fighter jets. I thank Minister Barth Eide for his genuine willingness to assist Ukraine in this matter.

We also talked about expanding defense cooperation, such as joint arms manufacturing and investment in Ukraine's military production».
