"Thank you for your support from the first days of a full-scale war – these are phone calls, as well as real steps of your government and all Canadians. Thank you to your beautiful country! I want to thank you for accepting the Ukrainians during this difficult period, helping us on the battlefield – military, financial, humanitarian assistance. Thank you for being with us, for standing for our victory," Zelenskyy said.

According to the presidential press service, the leaders will hold negotiations face to face and in an expanded format.

Zelenskyy and Trudeau will discuss Ukraine's defense needs, further financial and humanitarian support for our state, as well as expanding opportunities for economic and investment cooperation.
