Zelenskyy Visits Sweden Amid Security Threats

Published: 2024-05-31

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is visiting Sweden under tight security due to ongoing threats.

Recently, a network led by Russia's FSB attempted to recruit Zelenskyy's bodyguards to kidnap and assassinate him, aiming to present it as a 'gift' to President Putin.

Zelenskyy's trip coincides with a Nordic summit hosted by Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, focusing on Russia's war and security issues.

Despite promises, Sweden has yet to fulfill its financial and military support commitments to Ukraine.

Zelenskyy, once a comedian, now faces the grim realities of war, drawing comparisons to historical figures like Churchill and Chaplin.
