The Minister of Defense of Ukraine said this during a meeting with the new Ambassador of Turkey to Ukraine Levent Bilgen.

"We are grateful to Turkey for supporting Ukraine from the first day of the full-scale invasion in ensuring the security of the Black Sea. We invite Turkey to join the Maritime Coalition", Rustem Umerov said.

The parties also discussed potential cooperation in defense production.
