Kuleba: Russia's aggression against Ukraine remains among OSCE priorities of Sweden's leadership
The visit of the current OSCE Chairperson-in-Office, Swedish Foreign Minister Ann Linde, to Ukraine shows that Russia's aggression against Ukraine remains among the priorities of Sweden's leadership in the OSCE in 2021.
The Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba wrote about this on Twitter.
"Glad to welcome Ann Linde in Kyiv today on her first foreign trip as Chairperson of OSCE. A clear sign that addressing the major threat to European security caused by the ongoing Russian aggression against Ukraine remains a priority for Sweden in OSCE," Kuleba wrote.
Радий вітати у Києві міністерку закордонних справ Швеції Анн Лінде. Це її перший закордонний візит як головуючої в ОБСЄ. Чіткий сигнал, що основна загроза європейській безпеці, спричинена агресією РФ проти України, залишається серед пріоритетів головування Швеції в ОБСЄ у 2021. pic.twitter.com/nvzKwX6sWb
