Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba had a telephone conversation with the co-chair of the support group for Ukraine in the US House of Representatives, Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur.
The conversation took place in the context of intensifying contacts between the head of Ukrainian diplomacy and representatives of the US Congress in order to counter the joint threats of Ukraine and the US and discuss priorities for the development of strategic partnership.
Dmytro Kuleba thanked Marcy Kaptur for her personal contribution to the strengthening of bipartisan and bicameral support for Ukraine in the US Congress, promoting important legislative initiatives for Ukraine.
The Congresswoman stressed that the support group for Ukraine is ready to continue to work with the other members of the House of Representatives and the US Senate to deter the Russian Federation from further aggressive actions against the Ukrainian state.
The interlocutors discussed counteraction to the Nord Stream - 2.
The sides also discussed the development of cooperation between Ukraine and the United States in the field of renewable energy sources.
Dmytro Kuleba recalled that last year the European Union approved a long-term strategy for reforming the energy sector based on a low-carbon economy. "According to our estimates, Ukraine can meet the demand of the European market for "green" energy sources, becoming the largest supplier of hydrogen," said the Minister.
In this context, he invited the American side to invest in hydrogen production in Ukraine and the creation of infrastructure for its transportation to Europe.
