At the same time, Brussels is unable to agree on a "reparation loan" - a number of countries are against it.

Swedish Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Steenergaard said on November 20 that Scandinavian countries spend the most on supporting Ukraine among NATO members. According to her, this is unreasonable and unfair, especially in conditions when other states do not show similar activity.
