Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba: «I met with Franck Armel Afoukou, Ambassador, Secretary General Of The Ministry Of Foreign Affairs of the Republic Of Benin, and thanked Benin for attending the Global Peace Summit and demonstrating respect for international law.

We discussed ways to advance the Peace Formula and develop Ukrainian-Benin relations in trade, education, digitalisation, agriculture, and other spheres.

We both noted that Russia’s war against Ukraine has negative consequences for African countries. I invited Benin to join the "Grain from Ukraine" humanitarian program, which strengthens Africa’s food security. Ukraine is also willing to share its experience in high-tech agriculture with Benin».
