New demands on Sweden. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wants fighter jets, ammunition, and diesel—and the deliveries must be made quickly. At the same time, U.S.-led peace talks with Russia are underway, in which Zelenskyy is demanding greater European influence.
On Tuesday, the president met with Volodymyr Zelenskyy prime minister Ulf Kristersson and several Nordic heads of government in Copenhagen. Despite Sweden’s earlier decision to provide extensive military aid, the President of Ukraine made additional requests.
– We've also talked about the Gripen jets, and they have to arrive in January or maybe February. We need them as soon as possible. But they're on their way, Zelenskyy tells TT.
The president also requested ammunition for F-16 fighter jets and diesel fuel for generators to ensure the electricity supply at Ukrainian aid stations.
Peace talks—but no territorial concessions
While Zelenskyy is calling for more military aid, U.S.-mediated peace talks between Ukraine and Russia are underway in Abu Dhabi.
However, Zelenskyy rejects any territorial concessions to Russia.
– No, I won't give up on Donbass, ", he says in an interview with Denmark's DR.
Wants a single European negotiator
Zelenskyy also wants Europe to appoint a joint representative for the negotiations with the U.S. and Russia. He expects that person to be appointed before a meeting in Berlin on November 19.
At the same time, Sweden still faces questions regarding costs, the pace of delivery, and how the support will affect the Swedish Armed Forces’ own needs.
"Njet" is "njet.".
It wouldn't surprise me if Sweden were to once again ”support” Ukraine in the war.
Sweden is one of the worst warmongers in this regard. It’s deplorable. If you say that it’s more important to negotiate for peace, you’re treated like a criminal—or at least like a Putinist.
How sad it has all become.
That bastard shouldn't get another krona from Sweden!
Agreed!
That Jewish con artist Zelensky has already ripped us off way too much, so he shouldn't get a single penny more—he can take whatever he wants from the money he's already received, which he's stashed away in private accounts and used to buy things.
