The session will be held on the sidelines of the meeting of NATO defense ministers. Ukraine’s Minister of Defense, Denys Shmyhal, will take part in the “Ramstein” meeting.

In the second half of the day, a press conference is also scheduled with Denys Shmyhal and the defense ministers of Germany and the United Kingdom.
