On Thursday, June 15, Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal and Prime Minister of Denmark Mette Frederiksen held a conversation.

The parties discussed the consequences of blowing up the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant by russia. 

"This man-made disaster is a war crime for which russia must be held accountable. It is crucial to strengthen sanctions, in particular against the missile and nuclear industries of russia," the Head of the Ukrainian Government stressed.

Denys Shmyhal also informed Mette Frederiksen about the situation in Kherson and Mykolaiv regions and the work of the emergency services that had evacuated more than 3,700 people from the flood zone. 

"One of the top priorities now is to ensure centralised water supply to the affected regions. In this context, the assistance of Denmark, which was one of the first countries to take Mykolaiv under its patronage since the beginning of the full-scale invasion and is helping with the recovery in the Mykolaiv region, is particularly valuable," the Prime Minister stressed.

He also said that the Government had decided to build a new water supply system to Mykolaiv and invited Danish companies to implement this infrastructure project.

In a conversation with his Danish counterpart, Denys Shmyhal thanked for the support of the "fighter jet coalition" and the USD 1.4 billion in defence spending to strengthen Ukraine's defence capabilities.
