Ukraine-NATO Council meets today

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg convenes a meeting of the new Ukraine-NATO Council today, July 26, at Kyiv's request.

"The parties will meet to hold consultations on the latest developments and discuss the transportation of Ukrainian grain across the Black Sea," NATO Spokesperson Oana Lungescu told dpa agency, DW reports.

According to her, the meeting will take place at the level of ambassadors.

As reported, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in his evening video message on July 22 that the Ukraine-NATO Council meeting would be held in the next few days and would touch upon overcoming the crisis situation in the Black Sea and ensuring the sustainable operation of the "grain corridor".

“I spoke with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg… about Russian aggressive steps in the Black Sea. Any destabilization in this region and the disruption of our export routes will mean problems with corresponding consequences for everyone in the world. The price crisis is the least of the possible consequences,” the President stressed.
