The Ambassador of Ukraine to Sweden Andriy Plakhotnyuk told the media center "Ukraine" about it.

"The Swedes are 200% with the Ukrainians. Constantly. Beginning from the fact that they bring things for the internally displaced people, provide them with housing, and even offered to donate blood. Support is also felt in the fact that there are constantly and everywhere Ukrainian flags, there are demonstrations in support of Ukraine", - said the ambassador.
