Swedish Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard condemned Russia's missile strikes on Sumy and Kryvyi Rig, highlighting the devastating toll on civilians. Following the deadly attacks that killed dozens, Sweden summoned the Russian ambassador to express its strong opposition and reaffirm expectations for respecting international humanitarian law. Stenergard stated the necessity for Russia to withdraw its troops and stressed Sweden's commitment to supporting Ukraine until a just peace is achieved. The global community continues to react with outrage to Russia's actions, framing them as aggressive rather than peaceful.
These are not the acts of a country that seeks peace.
Russia's responsibility to protect civilians and civilian infrastructure in accordance with international humanitarian law was emphasised to the Russian ambassador.
