During the meeting, Lytvynenko emphasized the importance of confronting Russian praganda, which is actively spreading both in the West and in the Global South. He pointed out the need to debunk myths about so-called "fraternal nations" and other historical hoax stories circulated by Russian praganda. He also focused on Russia’s attempts to rewrite Ukrainian history.

The secretary paid special attention to highlighting the goals and objectives set by President Zelensky by initiating the Global Peace Summit, set to be held in Switzerland on June 15-16, 2024. According to the official, the event should mark one of the steps on the path to ending the war and forcing Russia to return to the international legal field.
