They also discussed the energy sector, logistics, and data centers, which, according to the president, are regularly targeted by Russian attacks. Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of assistance from partners in rebuilding destroyed infrastructure.

They also discussed additional measures to support Ukrainians and the economy, particularly attracting investment to support exports.
