“There is a broad consensus that the way forward has some important steps,” states Sweden’s Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson after the digital summit on sustainable peace in Ukraine over the weekend.
About 25 leaders, mainly from Europe, attended the meeting led by Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
“President Zelensky gave his view on the recent discussions between the USA, Ukraine, and Russia,” Ulf Kristersson writes in a comment to TT after the meeting.
“We also discussed the ‘coalition of the willing’ to long-term strengthen Ukraine’s security, initiated by France and Britain.”
According to Kristersson, there is a broad consensus on important steps forward:
“Now Ukraine has accepted an agreement for 30 days of ceasefire to then reach sustainable peace. Now the ball is in Russia’s court, which cannot be allowed to delay this process or set new conditions on Ukraine,” he writes and continues:
“Strengthen European NATO countries’ own defense. Collaborate closely within the EU and with the rest of Europe. Continue strengthening Ukraine and continuous sanctions against Russia. All this is now being done by Sweden.”
The meeting began at 11 o’clock on Saturday and ended just over two hours later.
