The leaders discussed issues on which they share "common views" as well as topics where their positions differ, Fico said.
"Slovakia will continue to defend and promote its national interests. At the same time, I believe it is appropriate to maintain an objective, constructive and respectful dialogue with all our partners," the Slovak prime minister wrote.
On the evening of June 18, Zelenskyy said that during his meeting with Fico in Brussels, they discussed Ukraine's European integration, energy cooperation and the outcomes of the G7 summit in Evian.
