Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that Russia does not need security guarantees but rather the ability to interfere in the affairs of other countries without hindrance. He made the statement while addressing the Danish parliament on November 11.

“We hear time and again that Russia allegedly needs security guarantees. Yet no one has attacked Russia for many decades. Since World War II, not a single decade has passed without Moscow starting a war or using military force against another country.

“So when Russians now talk about a security architecture for themselves or security guarantees for Russia, they are hardly referring to genuine security. Or peace,” Zelenskyy said.

The Ukrainian president believes that Vladimir Putin wants to remain in power, while Russia wants to interfere in other countries’ affairs and use force with impunity.

“In reality, they want to interfere in the affairs of other countries without hindrance, use force whenever they see fit, and ensure that no one can support freedom inside Russia, because Putin wants to retain his personal power forever and pass on his imperialist and, in many respects, simply fascist views to future generations,” Zelenskyy said.
