Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko will pay a working visit to Germany on May 9-10, 2018, where he will hold talks with the leaders of Germany and France and also meet with European Council President Donald Tusk, the press service of the Ukrainian presidential administration has reported.

"The program of the visit foresees trilateral talks with Federal Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron, as well as a meeting with President of the European Council Donald Tusk," reads a statement posted on the administration's website on Monday.

Poroshenko will also take part in events at the annual ceremony to present the Charlemagne Prize to Macron.

Earlier, Merkel announced negotiations between the leaders of Ukraine, Germany and France in Aachen in May.

Poroshenko said in April that security issues would be considered among other things at the planned meeting of the heads of Germany, France and Ukraine in Aachen in May.

"Of course, when the Ukrainian president is invited to Aachen, there will be a great number of international leaders there, and consultations will be held there, including on security issues," Poroshenko said in an interview with Ukrainian TV channels.
