That's according to the presidential press service, Ukrinform reports.

"Staying on a visit in Italy as a member of the official delegation, Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak on the instructions of the Head of State had a phone call with National Security Advisor to the President of the United States Jake Sullivan. As part of the ongoing dialogue with the allies, the American side was informed about the current situation on fighting the Russian invaders on the battlefield and the latest actions of the defense forces of Ukraine to de-occupy its territories," the report reads.

The two also discussed ensuring unity and support for Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression at the G7 meeting, which will take place in the middle of May in the Japanese city of Hiroshima.

Yermak thanked the American side, U.S. President Joseph Biden, and Congress for their strong leadership in supporting Ukraine and returning a just peace to the European continent.
