Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen warned on October 15 that buying energy from Russia jeopardizes European security and could lead to more Russian aggression, particularly if Ukraine falls. She made these remarks ahead of the European Council meeting in Brussels, referencing a reported diesel deal between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Frederiksen emphasized that Europe's objective of reducing reliance on Russian fossil fuels was undermined by such purchases, as they "finance the killing of Europeans." The Danish leader's comments came amid European criticism of deals involving Russian fuel and calls to maintain pressure on Moscow. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni echoed similar sentiments, backing Ukraine's stance on an energy ceasefire.
