Particular attention during the meeting was given to protecting and restoring Ukraine\u2019s energy system, which is subject to constant Russian attacks.<\/p>\n
Russia continues to strike our energy infrastructure, so Japan\u2019s assistance is especially important for restoring and strengthening the resilience of our energy system. We also count on the timely delivery of the planned shipments of necessary equipment<\/p>\n
