"We discussed the available diplomatic options and agreed to coordinate and work together for our common European interests.

He added that both sides had discussed certain regulatory changes in Poland that have affected Ukrainian students and applicants to Polish universities.

"During such a war, any difficulties for children, students are felt especially painfully. I asked Donald to consider this situation and help Ukrainian youth," Zelensky said.

Zelensky also noted that he and Tusk had discussed the negotiation process for Ukraine's EU membership.

"Donald and I agreed that the first negotiation cluster for Ukraine and Moldova should be opened simultaneously. Ukraine and Moldova began this path together and must continue along it together," he said, thanking Poland for its support.
