Specific countries have assumed the responsibility for coordinating these funds. All participants at today’s summit without exception have assumed the responsibility for providing the funding ,” Poroshenko said.

The sphere of our cooperation with NATO member countries is very broad. In the final resolution, there will be language promoting bilateral cooperation, including in the military-technical sphere,” he said.

“Individual countries have promised to provide rehabilitation support for wounded Ukrainian soldiers. Other countries have pledged to supply medical equipment and medicines, ” he added.
