Sweden needs to prepare to support the Ukrainian resistance by sending the Jas 39 Gripen plane, writes Liberal Youth Association chairman Erik Berg – and his Ukrainian colleague Oleksandr Santjenko in a debate article in Dagens Nyheter.

Santchenko is the chairman of the youth union of President Volodymyr Zelenskyi’s party in Ukraine.

Russia’s war of aggression in Ukraine must end in Ukrainian victory, Berg and Santjenko believe.

“There is no room for compromises, such would make all of Europe vulnerable to future Russian attacks. Sweden needs to prepare to support the Ukrainian resistance with the Jas 39 Gripen plane,” they write.

Center leader Muharren Demirok has previously said that the Swedish Armed Forces should analyze whether Sweden can spare combat flights to Ukraine.
