Dutch PM, European Council president discuss support for Ukraine

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte and European Council President Charles Michel have discussed support for Ukraine and relations with China.

That's according to Rutte's Twitter account, Ukrinform reports.

"I just had a pleasant conversation with European Council President Charles Michel about urgent issues on the European agenda, including the need to tackle the increasing pressure generated by irregular migration. We also discussed our ongoing support for Ukraine and our relations with China," he wrote.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky earlier thanked Rutte for the Patriot system and a joint decision with Denmark to supply Ukraine with 14 Leopard tanks.
