"Thank you for supporting Ukraine with resolutions in response to the full-scale Russian invasion. They are very important to us. Therefore, we especially value the first visit to our country by the President of the General Assembly in almost 30 years," said Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

The President also thanked Dennis Francis for supporting the first Peace Summit and its Joint Communiqué. He emphasized that one of the practical outcomes of the Summit could be a new resolution, which Ukraine will soon submit to the General Assembly, on nuclear safety and the security of Ukraine's nuclear facilities, with an emphasis on the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy discussed the current situation on the battlefield and the critical state of the energy system due to ongoing Russian attacks on its facilities.

The President of the UN General Assembly noted that during his visit, he had the opportunity to see firsthand the consequences of the war and understand the challenges faced by the Ukrainian people, as well as the needs of our country.

Dennis Francis reaffirmed the UN General Assembly's continued solidarity with Ukraine, emphasized the need for all members of the UN to comply with the UN Charter and noted the resilience and courage of Ukrainians.
