Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov met with Defense Minister of Singapore Dr Ng Eng Hen.
"I'm grateful to Singapore for the invitation and for the comprehensive support they've provided to Ukraine. This country plays an important role for us. It is critical that we share a goal to promote justice," Reznikov wrote.
He also met the Defense Minister of Australia Richard Marles and the Defense Minister of New Zealand Andrew Little.
Besides the Asian and Pacific participants, Reznikov also discussed cooperation with several NATO countries, including Canadian Minister of National Defense Anita Anand and German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius.
