They reaffirmed their unwavering support for Ukraine's independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity. The Secretary and his counterparts also discussed their shared concerns about the pace of developments in Iran's nuclear program as time runs short for Tehran to return to the JCPOA. They highlighted their solidarity with Lithuania in the face of escalating political pressure and economic coercion by the People's Republic of China and rejected those practices. They also discussed Libya's ongoing efforts to organize national elections and agreed on the importance of the electoral process advancing without delay.
