As co-chairs of the International Task Force on Security and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine, the Head of the Office of the President and the former NATO Secretary General also discussed its future work plan

Additionally, the parties reviewed the implementation of recommendations from the report titled "Ukraine's Euro-Atlantic Future: Paving the path to peace & security," published in May of this year. The document outlines arguments and specific proposals regarding Ukraine's future NATO membership.
