Sweden Sends a Clear Message: The Road to Peace Is MORE Support for Ukraine!

Sweden’s Defence Minister Pål Jonson delivers one of his strongest messages in Brussels: peace will only come by stepping up support for Ukraine and tightening pressure on Russia. He praises the EU Commission’s proposals, calls for using reparation loans to fund Ukraine’s defence, and insists these resources must be decided by Ukrainians themselves. Jonson highlights Russia’s failures on the battlefield, stresses the urgency of increasing sanctions, and welcomes new EU–NATO cooperation on military mobility — a crucial step to strengthening Europe’s security landscape. A defining moment at the Foreign Affairs Council (Defence).
