When a peace agreement is reached in Ukraine, Sweden is ready to contribute to security guarantees for Ukraine and the rest of Europe.”
Details: The head of the Swedish government outlined specific areas of aid to ensure peace. In particular, it is about the transfer of Gripen fighters for aerial surveillance over Ukraine, the provision of maritime resources for demining the Black Sea, as well as further training of Ukrainian officers.
Kristersson emphasized that the implementation of these plans is possible only if certain conditions are met. Among them is the achievement of the peace agreement itself, the establishment of clear rules for the use of multinational forces and the official approval of these decisions by the Swedish parliament.
“Sweden is ready to make its contribution to peace in Europe,” concluded the prime minister.
