KYIV - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky met Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in the southern city of Mykolaiv on Monday, during a rare visit by a foreign leader to a region close to the war front.
“I am grateful to all the medical workers who care about the health of our defenders. I wish them a speedy recovery!” Mr Zelensky thanked Ms Frederiksen for the assistance provided by Denmark, whose defence ministry said, earlier this month, that the country would donate 19 French-made Caesar howitzer artillery systems to Ukraine.
“The region is heroically withstanding all the attacks of the terrorists . During the visit, I held a meeting on the current situation in the region,” he wrote.
