According to the Ukrainian President?s press office, the two presidents discussed issues of bilateral cooperation, as well as plans on holding a regional conference of democratic states from the Baltic, Black Sea and Caspian regions in Ukraine next month. Representatives from the European Union, Russia and the United States are also invited to take part in the conference.
