President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Prime Minister of Croatia Andrej Plenkovic to discuss the need to strengthen Ukraine's positions, particularly through delivery of additional military aid, the press service of the Office of the President of Ukraine has said on Wednesday.

"The meeting focused primarily on additional military assistance. Enhancing Ukrainian warriors' capabilities on the battlefield and strengthening Ukraine's positions are essential for achieving a just and lasting peace. Our state is counting on the swift delivery of weapons as part of Croatia's next assistance package," it said.

Special attention was paid to Croatia's contribution to humanitarian demining, particularly the joint production of relevant machinery.

"This area is crucial for Ukraine not only during the war but also in post-war reconstruction," the press service said.

Zelenskyy and Plenkovic also addressed the expansion of rehabilitation and recovery programs for our defenders and their families.
