"During the meeting, the parties also discussed further support in strengthening our country's defence capabilities, enhancing economic resilience and restoring a just peace for Ukraine.
Special attention was paid to the Euro-Atlantic integration of our state," the Office of the President added.
Both Graham and Blumenthal have visited Kyiv numerous times since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion and have been actively supporting Ukraine.
Among other things, the Democratic senator last year supported Ukraine's right to launch strikes on Russian territory, while Graham said this spring that Ukraine must join NATO.
