Held a meeting in Brussels with Lithuanian Energy Minister Žygimantas Vaičiūnas. I thanked him for the significant support provided this winter, particularly for the transfer of generators to Kyiv. The assistance and equipment we received helped our power system withstand the challenges, and we are deeply grateful for this support. We also discussed strengthening bilateral cooperation and implementing joint energy projects. Ukraine is interested in acquiring equipment from decommissioned power plants, and we agreed to work together on this issue. I thank Lithuania and the Lithuanian people for their tangible support. @MinEnergyLT _____ У Брюсселі провели зустріч із Міністром енергетики Литви Жигімантасом Вайчюнасом.
