The conversation also touched upon Ukraine's reform agenda and the necessary legislative measures to strengthen the state and garner international support. Stefanchuk highlighted that Ukraine's commitment to reforms extends beyond merely passing laws, emphasizing the importance of their quality, constitutionality, and relevance to the current martial law situation. He further stated that Germany stands as one of Ukraine's key partners, whose consistent support is crucial during the ongoing full-scale war. Stefanchuk acknowledged the domestic political landscape in Germany, where support for Ukraine remains a subject of intense debate. He underscored the importance of basing cooperation on concrete results, mutual trust, and a clear understanding of shared priorities. Stefanchuk expressed his conviction that the Ukrainian-German partnership will continue to strengthen, particularly at the parliamentary level.",
