Zelenskyy invites newly elected Argentinian leader to Ukraine

Zelenskyy congratulated his counterpart on a convincing victory in the elections and thanked him for his unwavering principled position from the first days of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.

"I am grateful to you for not trying to balance between good and evil and immediately declaring your support for Ukraine. Ukrainians saw all of this, and we are very grateful to you for it," Zelenskyy said.

The President of Ukraine thanked Argentina for humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

Argentina's participation in the "peace formula"

Zelenskyy invited Javier Milei to continue Argentina's participation in the implementation of the "peace formula," including sending a representative to the next meeting of national security and political advisers.

The head of state stated that Ukraine is interested in further developing relations with both Argentina and the South American region. He proposed that the President of Argentina join the preparation for the Ukraine-Latin America summit.
