In order to achieve fair and long peace, European countries should strengthen their defense capability, pursue agreed foreign policy and provide effective security guarantees with the United States. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated this during a speech at the main session of the Munich Conference on Security.
“Many leaders have said that Europe needs its own armed forces, the army – the Army of Europe. And I really believe that this time has come. It is necessary to create the armed forces of Europe. It is not more difficult than decisively resisting Russian attacks, as we do it, ”he said.
According to the President, Europe needs a single voice, not a dozen individual. That is why diplomacy and a single foreign policy should be coordinated. In particular, about the fair end of the war.
“Ukraine will never agree to the agreements concluded after our back, without our participation. And this rule should be applied to all of Europe. No decisions on Ukraine without Ukraine. No decisions on Europe without Europe. Europe must take place at the table when decisions on Europe are made, ”Volodymyr Zelenskyy stressed.
The head of state expressed his belief that Russia did not want peace. This year, Moscow plans to create 15 new divisions, increasing to 150 thousand soldiers. That is why even after the war, Ukraine needs reliable security guarantees. They will be strong only with the participation of the United States and the proactive position of Europe.
“Some say that the New Year is not January 1, but during the Munich Conference on Security. This New Year begins now, and let it be the year of Europe – a united, strong, safe and peaceful, ”the head of state summed up.
