Swedish PM arrives in Ukraine

Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson arrived in Ukraine and met with President Volodymyr Zelensky.

“Today I welcome Prime Minister of Sweden Ulf Kristersson to Ukraine. Ukraine and Sweden stand together in defense of humanity, freedom and Europe. Together we will be victorious,” Zelensky wrote on Telegram.

As Ukrinform reported, in late January, the Swedish government allowed the state-owned company Svenska kraftnät (Swedish Power Grids) to transfer to Ukraine the equipment needed to restore the country’s power system after Russian attacks.  

Swedish Defense Minister Pål Jonson said three weeks ago that Sweden was considering sending Stridsvagn 122 tanks (modernized Leopard 2A5) to Ukraine.
