Quote from Zelenskyy: "Today I am on a working trip all day - first to Mykolaiv, then to Odesa.

Meeting and negotiations with the Danish delegation – with Prime Minister Frederiksen, representatives of the coalition of parties. In particular, with the Danish Minister of Defense and the Minister of Foreign Affairs. They are part of the delegation.

We talked in great detail about Ukraine's defense needs. About what can help us liberate our territory – our south, our east.

And about our needs in the context of rebuilding Ukraine."

Details: Zelenskyy noted that Denmark took patronage over the restoration of Mykolaiv, over the projects in the energy sector, infrastructure, social sphere, and production.

The President added that water purification and restoration of the normal water supply, destroyed by Russian invaders, is especially important for Mykolaiv. "There is already a corresponding project with the participation of Denmark, the implementation of which has begun," he said.

"But much more needs to be done to restore and modernize what is the basis of our people's lives," Zelenskyy added.

In Mykolaiv, the President of Ukraine and the Prime Minister of Denmark visited the hospital where Ukrainian soldiers are being rescued after being wounded.

In Odesa, they talked about Ukraine's security and humanitarian initiatives.

Quote from Zelenskyy: "Denmark, in particular, has supported our Black Sea export initiative and joined the Grain from Ukraine program.

The fact that we have made substantial progress on food security proves that we can make progress on the other points of our Peace Formula as well. Today we discussed what exactly Denmark's participation in the implementation of the points of the Peace Formula could be.

Of course, I thanked Denmark for their defense support, for significantly strengthening our artillery, for their willingness to join the tank coalition.

Today we discussed what else we can do to reinforce Ukrainian warriors."

Details: Zelenskyy added that Ukraine and Denmark are coordinating actions to strengthen sanctions against Russia.

He called on Denmark to help prevent Russian athletes from participating in international competitions.

The President added that in Mykolaiv and Odesa oblasts, he held meetings with the military and oblast leadership – and not only about security but also about the social situation and available economic opportunities.
