Zelensky Visits Denmark: Official Participants in Events Marking Denmark’s Presidency of the EU Council
On July 3rd, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made an official visit to Denmark, which has recently assumed the rotating presidency of the European Union Council. This diplomatic move aims to deepen cooperation between Ukraine and the European Union during Denmark's leadership period, emphasizing solidarity and strategic partnership. Zelensky participated in a series of events dedicated to the start of Denmark’s presidency, which officially began on July 1st under the banner 'A Strong Europe in a Changing World.' His involvement was confirmed by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and during these ceremonies, he had opportunities to engage with leading European and Danish policymakers. The events were also attended by members of the royal couple, government officials, and key international figures. Denmark’s presidency focuses on maintaining European unity, strengthening security, boosting economic growth, and promoting ecological initiatives across the continent. Ukrainian officials are hopeful that this period will bring breakthrough decisions regarding Ukraine’s accession process to the EU, accelerating its integration efforts. Discussions are expected to include topics such as support for Ukraine’s anti-war efforts, reforms, countering shadow fleets associated with Russia, and addressing regional security challenges. The Danish presidency aims to reinforce Europe's resilience and readiness in an increasingly unpredictable global environment.
