Denmark will allocate €665 million to Ukraine for defense and energy, - Zelenskyy
Denmark will provide Ukraine with a new defense package worth 645 million euros and energy assistance worth 20 million euros. The United Kingdom has also announced new sanctions against Russia's oil sector.
According to Censor.NET, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced this while summarizing his visits to Denmark and Ireland.
"Together with the team, we held many meetings. We spoke with all of our European partners about how to help Ukraine get through this winter. We discussed what each partner can do to strengthen air defense, support the energy sector, and assist the railways. It is important that our partners are listening to us," the statement reads.
Negotiations on EU accession
Negotiations on Ukraine’s accession to the European Union were discussed as a separate topic. Kyiv is working to open the remaining two negotiation clusters by the end of the year and to accelerate further steps toward membership next year.
"We discussed this with European Council President António Costa and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. We also had important conversations with the prime ministers of Ireland, Poland, Italy, and the Czech Republic, as well as with the president of Lithuania. In Dublin, we also held meetings aimed at bringing peace closer—with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner," Zelenskyy said.
The president thanked international partners for their support and willingness to continue assisting Ukraine.
