In addition, Zelenskyy and Stoltenberg discussed the current situation at the front in Ukraine.
The Ukraine's President told the Alliance leader about the destructive massive missile attacks of the criminal army of the Russian Federation and drone attacks on Ukrainian cities and critical infrastructure facilities.
Zelenskyy called on NATO and Western partners to provide Ukraine with further support in strengthening air defence capabilities.
The importance of signing a bilateral agreement on security cooperation between Ukraine and Great Britain within the framework of the G7 joint declaration adopted at the previous NATO summit in Vilnius was noted.
The President discussed the continuation of work on similar documents with other partners and emphasised the importance of urgently signing such agreements, which will be effective before Ukraine joins NATO.
The President of Ukraine and the NATO Secretary General discussed preparations for the next Alliance summit in Washington.
The head of state emphasised that Ukraine expects the adoption of decisions that will bring its membership in NATO closer.
What is known about Zelenskyy's plans to participate in the Forum in Davos
According to Bloomberg journalists, during a meeting with US President Joe Biden's national security advisor, Jake Sullivan, in Davos, Zelenskyy should receive a message from the head of the White House regarding the war unleashed by the Kremlin.
The publication notes that the White House demands that Ukraine abandon plans for further offensives and switch to full-fledged defence.
Zelenskyy "understands why it makes sense, although he doesn't want to talk about it publicly."
It is also reported that the Ukrainian President should convey his answer to Biden and "remind the US Congress that Ukraine can play a proper defence only if the US and its allies guarantee that it has the necessary means."
Reuters wrote that the President of Ukraine and his delegation are meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and discussing what immediate assistance is needed for Ukraine. The issue of rebuilding our country was also raised.
According to The Guardian, the President of Ukraine arrived at a closed meeting within the WEF.
Later, the publication added that Zelenskyy met with company heads at a "CEOs for Ukraine" session at the World Economic Forum. His performance will take place later.
