Ukraine Defense Contact Group's (UDCG) gathering will be chaired by United Kingdom Defense Secretary John Healey today. Moreover, United States Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will take part in the discussion for the first time since assuming the role and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will visit Kiev soon.

"This is a crucial step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities and coordinating further actions with allies," Umerov concluded. The meeting precedes the Munich Security Conference which will start later in the week.
