Zelenskyy: Russia wants not security guarantees, but the ability to interfere in others' affairs
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke in the Danish parliament during the second day of his visit to Denmark. In his speech, he again accused the Russian leadership of lying when it claims that Russia, supposedly, needs security guarantees.
Zelenskyy noted that for many decades, no one has attacked Russia. According to him, after World War II, there hasn't been a single decade when Moscow itself didn't start a war or use military force against another country.
Therefore, when Russians now talk about security guarantees for their country, it is unlikely they mean true security, the Ukrainian president stated. In fact, according to him, the Kremlin simply wants to gain the ability to freely interfere in the affairs of other states, use force when it deems necessary, and prevent support for freedom within Russia itself.
Zelenskyy also stated that Vladimir Putin seeks to maintain personal power indefinitely and pass on his imperialistic and largely fascistic views to future generations.
In addition to speaking in parliament, Zelenskyy met with the Speaker of the Folketing — the Danish Parliament — and the leaders of all 12 parties represented therein.
In a post about the meeting, he reminded that the day before, the Danish parliament unanimously approved a new military aid package for Ukraine worth 4.8 billion Danish kroner (about 643 million euros). Another 150 million kroner (approximately 20 million euros) were allocated to support Ukrainian energy, which is suffering from Russian strikes.
