The German Foreign Minister also considered the recent statements of US President Donald Trump to be evaluated in the context of the final stage of the US election campaign.

He added: "In my opinion, we should pay attention to the essence of the matter; That the United States continues to support Ukraine with us."

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Portugal also said in this meeting: "In this difficult geopolitical situation, we have a common vision that includes the defense of multilateralism, promotion of peace and unshakable solidarity with Ukraine."

In recent days, the American president, while emphasizing the cancellation of the Russian diesel embargo, has called for elections to change the president of Ukraine.
