Zelenskyy says Russia's talk of security guarantees is not about real security

Briefing by News4U · First published

Today Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on X that when Russians talk about security guarantees for Russia, they are hardly talking about real security and peace. In a post from his speech at the Danish Folketing, he said people keep hearing that Russia supposedly needs security guarantees, even though no one has attacked Russia for many decades, and that since World War II Moscow has not gone one decade without starting a war or using military force against another country. What they really want, he said, is to freely interfere in other countries’ affairs and use force at will, and to stop support for liberty inside Russia, because Vladimir Putin wants to keep personal power forever and pass on “imperialist and, in many ways, simply fascist views.” [1]
