further strengthen cooperation with Nigeria at the bilateral level and within
the framework of international organizations,” the Ukraine president said.

 

 “We are grateful for
your country’s support of the Resolution of the General Assembly of the United
Nations Organization “Principles of the UN Charter underlying a comprehensive,
just and sustainable peace in Ukraine.

 

“I count on the active participation of Nigeria in its
practical implementation.

 

“We see the further provision of global food security, of
which Ukraine was and remains a reliable guarantor at the global level, as an
important direction of cooperation.

 

 “The fulfilment of
this task will be facilitated by the successful implementation of the Ukrainian
initiative “Grain from Ukraine”, which is designed to significantly increase
the supply of grain to African countries in order to prevent famine.

 

“Taking this opportunity, I invite you to pay an official
visit to Ukraine at a time convenient for you. I am confident that your visit
will strengthen the dialogue between our countries and contribute to the
further consolidation of joint efforts of the international community aimed at
solving the urgent challenges of today, in particular the crisis situation
caused by Russia regarding the guarantee of world food security.”
