Salome Zourabichvili wished Volodymyr Zelenskyy success at the post of President of Ukraine.

"Why did our team go into politics? The challenge number one for us is to cease fire in the east, where our people die every day," Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted.

He emphasized that Ukraine would continue a consistent foreign policy course aimed at restoring sovereignty and territorial integrity, and further developing European and Euro-Atlantic integration.

The Head of State also believes that one of the challenges for Ukraine is victory over corruption.
