Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha issued a statement regarding his meeting with former Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida during his visit to Japan.

Sybiha said he thanked Kishida for his stance since the very first days of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. He stated that under Kishida's leadership, Japan provided strong support to Ukraine and played a significant role in mobilizing international assistance, particularly during Japan's 2023 G7 Presidency and the Hiroshima Summit attended by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Sybiha also noted that the meeting included an exchange of views on further expanding cooperation between Ukraine and Japan in areas of mutual interest.
