“The second meeting of the Ukrainian Defense Contact Group will take place on Monday. It will be held online. The Secretary will join from the Pentagon,” Kirby said, adding that a full list of participants and other details on the summit will be provided on the morning of May 23.

“They will come together, as they did in Ramstein last month, to provide security assistance to Ukraine and discuss what it will look like in the future,” the US Department of Defense spokesman said.

In turn, Reznikov clarifiedthat during Ramstein-2 further needs of the Armed Forces will be analyzed.

“There was another conversation with our friend Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin. We discussed the current efforts of the Ukrainian army to repel Russia’s armed aggression. We also discussed the upcoming Ramstein-2 online meeting, where we will assess the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine,” the report says.
