In your case, you can follow below option to resolved these issue.

  1. sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 78BD65473CB3BD13

    Or

  2. sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 78BD65473CB3BD13

In first option, we don’t have to decide which port should be or you can go with second option. Either way, both will work.
