Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has said Russia’s intensified strikes on Ukraine over the weekend reveal Moscow’s continued disregard for peace efforts.
Speaking on Monday at a Nordic leaders’ summit in Finland, Frederiksen condemned the latest wave of Russian drone attacks, calling them “the largest” of the war, according to the Ukrainian air force. “During the day Putin talks about negotiations, then he bombs Ukraine during the night,” she told reporters.

The remarks come amid growing frustration in Europe over what many leaders see as Russia’s use of negotiations as a distraction while continuing its military campaign.
