On October 5, Zelenskyy arrived on a court visit to Granada for the summit of the European political community. This was reported in the morning by the press service of the head of state.

Partners are going to pay attention to available options for the protection of the grain corridor and provide Ukraine with energy-generated equipment before the winter period.

It is already known that Madrid is ready to provide Kyiv with equipment for protecting the sky, artillery and anti-drone systems.

"The key for us, especially before winter, is strengthening air defence, and there is already a basis for new agreements with partners. We are preparing to confirm and implement them. We are working to strengthen the existing security architecture in Europe, particularly in the regional. Ukraine has strong proposals," Zelenskyy said.
