Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha: “I had a detailed and friendly meeting with Gambia’s Foreign Minister Mamadou Tangara. I appreciate his words of admiration for the Ukrainian people's resilience.  

I am grateful to Gambia for its support of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity. It is about common principles. 

I appreciate the decision to appoint Gambia’s ambassador to Türkiye, instead of its ambassador to Russia, as non-resident ambassador to Ukraine. This is a sign of respect. 

I informed about Ukraine's progress toward a fair peace and emphasized the importance of African states maintaining a firm stance on this issue. We also want to expand our cooperation with the African Union. 

We talked about ways to foster mutually beneficial cooperation. Ukraine is ready to share its experience and technology to strengthen Gambia’s agricultural self-sufficiency and food security. 

I also invited my colleague to visit Ukraine."
