Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made a plea for peace during a taped address to Denmark on the 77th anniversary of the Scandinavian country's liberation from Germany during World War II, APA reports citing CNN.
"The Russian state is not ready to stop the war. They're dreaming of capturing Ukraine and other European countries. They're still dreaming that the freedom of Europe will disappear. But their dreams will not come true. The dream of peace shall come true," he said, "Just like it happened 77 years ago."
Zelensky's remarks were broadcasted to crowds who had gathered in public squares to commemorate the anniversary of the liberation.
In his speech, Zelensky cautioned that Russia's invasion may spread to other European countries.
"It is now in Ukraine that the future of our continent is decided. Whether not only we but our neighbors will have peace," he said, "No one can tell how many more days this war will go on. But I do believe our day of liberation is coming close."
Zelensky also thanked Danish supporters of Ukraine and asked them to remember the children who have died in Ukraine.
"Please remember Ukrainian children, 220 children whose lives were taken by this war. Please remember that Europe is capable of putting an end to the extension of this," he said.
