Kharkiv region that borders Russia<\/a>. <\/p>\nUkraine has urged Western leaders to increase the joint production of weapons and ammunition, improve Ukrainian air defenses and put new pressure on Russia via expanded sanctions. <\/p>\n
Not all the countries at the meeting are in full support for Ukraine in its war against Russia. Kremlin ally Serbia is the only European country that has refused to align with EU sanctions following Russia\u2019s invasion. It continues signing cooperation agreements with Moscow.<\/p>\n
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said he insisted that the summit statement should not include any call for sanctions on Russia and should not include proposed wording about Russia\u2019s negative influence in the Balkan region. <\/p>\n
Albania, a NATO member since 2009 and a candidate for EU membership, has voiced its full support for Kyiv against Russia\u2019s invasion. It has provided military assistance in the form of ammunition and training of Ukrainian military. It was among the first countries offering shelter to Ukrainian refugees. It has joined international sanctions against Russian officials and institutions.<\/p>\n
As a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council in the last two years, Albania joined the U.S. in initiating resolutions against Russia\u2019s invasion.<\/p>\n
Zelenskyy said all of the countries at the summit must remain vigilant over what Russian President Vladimir Putin does next. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe interaction between us, between neighbors, between neighboring regions, between all partners, has become a factor that along with the resilience of our people in Ukraine, does not allow Putin to prevail,\u201d Zelenskyy said.<\/p>\n
