Key points of the President of Ukraine at the press conference in Denmark
Key points of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s remarks at the joint press conference with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen:
▫️russia is escalating its destructive actions. Political will is needed now to demonstrate readiness to provide an adequate response to russia’s drone onslaught.
▫️A joint response is necessary. Every European state must have the capacity to counter drones. Ukraine has the experience, and we will share it.
▫️Ukraine will be the main flagship force in the joint project on drone defense. Work on it is currently underway.
▫️In fact, russia has achieved very little this year, making many mistakes. Pressure on russia must be increased so that it is forced to end the war.
▫️European states must limit trade with russia. Any ties with russia can be used against Europe.
▫️Ukraine calls for the full use of frozen russian assets. Their implementation is necessary.
▫️The unity of most EU countries and the UK has grown stronger after russia’s drone attacks.
▫️No one can block Ukraine’s path to the EU. This is the decision of the Ukrainian people, and it is the decision of Europe.
▫️Ukraine has never attacked civilian infrastructure in russia. It has always responded to strikes against its own infrastructure. Now Ukraine has the capacity to respond to russia — and russians can feel it.
