No less interesting were the discussions that took place during the working sessions, in particular regarding: the informational component of the Russian-Ukrainian war, Ukraine’s path to joining NATO, demographic consequences and challenges for Ukraine and the countries of the European Union.

Particular attention was drawn to the issue of diplomatic relations during the period of Russian aggression and the impact of the Russian Federation’s large-scale aggression in Ukraine on the environment of the international relations system.
