Russia's Wrath Disturbing Europe Again, Says Danish PM
Russia has once again taken a menacing stance, threatening Europe, according to Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.
Speaking after emergency talks in Paris over the U.S.'s shifting Ukraine war policy, Frederiksen warned that the war had been fueled by Russia's "imperial ambitions" and that the country was far from done with its invasion.
"I don't think they'll stop at Ukraine," she told reporters, urging caution against a swift ceasefire that could provide Russia with an opportunity to mobilize again and attack other European countries.
Hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron, the Paris meeting gathered leaders from France, Germany, Britain, Italy, Poland, Spain, the Netherlands, and Denmark, along with European Council, European Commission, and NATO heads.

Danish Troops: Approaching the Front Line?
Frederiksen revealed that the Danish government is open-minded about dispatching soldiers to Ukraine, but with important caveats. A key consideration is whether the U.S. will stand by its NATO allies if Danish troops are deployed.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who expressed readiness to send British soldiers to Ukraine as part of a peacekeeping force, received support from Frederiksen. "It's a very positive statement from the British," she said, emphasizing the need for joint action in discussions about various options.
Frederiksen, however, highlighted a multitude of questions that need answers before any troop deployment could take place, such as the safety of soldiers and continued U.S. support.
