"Ukraine successfully co-hosted with Poland the finals of the European Football Championship in 2012 and hosted the UEFA Champions League final in 2018 at a high level. Our country has quite a rich tradition of holding world and European championships in Olympic sports at a high level," Zelensky said.

Zelensky thanked Ceferin for the implementation of projects to develop football infrastructure in Ukraine, noting that UEFA provides support in the implementation of programs for internally displaced children from temporarily occupied territories in eastern Ukraine and from Crimea.

Ceferin arrived in Ukraine on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Ukrainian Association of Football.
