Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha discussed Europe's agenda for tomorrow and possible steps to increase pressure on Russia with German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul.

Sybiha stated that he had informed his German counterpart about Russia's attack on the CHP-5 power plant in Kharkiv a few hours earlier, saying, "Russia violated the energy ceasefire as soon as it was announced."

Emphasizing that Ukraine was ready for a comprehensive energy ceasefire if Russia ceased its attacks on energy infrastructure, Sybiha called for additional military aid packages for Ukraine to counter Russian attacks, the opening of European Union accession negotiation chapters, and the full use of frozen Russian assets.

Sybiha thanked Germany for its support and leadership in assisting Ukraine, noting that energy cooperation, joint defense production, and access for German companies to reconstruction projects also bring tangible benefits to the German economy.
