Zelensky Holds Air Defense, Energy Security Talks with Nordic Leaders

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday arrived in Denmark to discuss military support, air defense and energy infrastructure security with Nordic leaders, Danish authorities said. "I am proud to welcome President Zelensky and the Nordic leaders to Denmark. The Ukrainians' fight for a free Ukraine and a free Europe continues," Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said in a statement. The Nordic countries are among the main supporters of Ukraine and Zelensky travelled to Oslo at the end of October to meet with American envoys. Direct negotiations between Kyiv and Moscow, under US mediation, also began on Tuesday in Abu Dhabi. "Almost five years after the full-scale invasion, the rain of bombs targeting civilians, relief centers, and water and heating plants continues. That is why we must stand firm," Frederiksen said. Copenhagen police announced Tuesday that they would increase security in public spaces for the coming days. They have introduced a ban on the use of drones over the capital until November 12.
