Zelensky briefed Støre on his recent meeting with Donald Trump in Davos, diplomatic plans for upcoming negotiations, and ongoing work on related documents.

"Our team is now heading to the Emirates for meetings with both the American and Russian sides. We’ll see how it goes and then determine the next steps," Zelensky said.

The leaders also discussed the outcomes of the World Economic Forum in Davos. The Ukrainian President emphasized that Europe must become stronger and work together more closely.
