According to him, groups are being prepared to work in Germany, focusing on the details of future security guarantees for Ukraine. The Ukrainian delegation is headed by Lieutenant General Andrii Hnatov. Representatives of the Armed Forces, intelligence, and the security sector are involved in the work.

At the same time, a group dealing with issues of the economy, reconstruction, and investment has begun work in the United States. From the Ukrainian side, this track is overseen by First Deputy Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko, Deputy Prime Minister Taras Kachka, and Minister Oleksandr Sobolev, with experts also involved.

The third track is ongoing communication among national security advisers. Consultations between Ukraine, the United States, European partners, and other states of the Coalition of the Willing take place daily. The Ukrainian side in these contacts is coordinated by Rustem Umerov.
