The leaders of eight Nordic-Baltic nations said yesterday that they remain steadfast in their support for Ukraine and to the efforts by US President Donald Trump to end the Russian aggression against Ukraine.
The leaders of Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway and Sweden said in a statement that achieving peace between Ukraine and Russia requires a ceasefire and security guarantees for Ukraine.
“We welcome President Trump’s statement that the US is prepared to participate in security guarantees. No limitations should be placed on Ukraine’s armed forces or on its co-operation with other countries,” the statement said.
Trump has said that he had agreed with Putin that a peace deal should be sought without the prior ceasefire that Ukraine and its European allies, until now with US support, have demanded.
