Sweden's Foreign Minister on Ukraine Aid Burden

Swedens foreign minister, Maria Malmer Stenergård, expressed concerns about Nordic countries bearing an unfair share of Ukraine aid costs. She criticized the uneven distribution of financial and military contributions among EU members. Denmark, for instance, has given over ten billion euros, while Spain contributed less than two percent of its GDP. Stenergård advocated for fair burden-sharing and backed the European Commissions proposal to tap into frozen Russian assets. She also dismissed rumors of a US-Russia ceasefire deal and called for stronger action against Russia.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
