The Dutch foreign minister, Martin Lidegaard, is visiting Ukraine this week to demonstrate Denmark’s interest in playing an active role in resolving the country’s conflict with Russia and assisting with the process of democratic reformation.

Today and tomorrow, Lidegaard is visiting the capital Kiev and Kharkiv, the country’s second largest city, which is located in eastern Ukraine.

While Lidegaard cannot imagine the EU would send military support to Ukraine, he is ready to increase sanctions against Russia.

The Danish government is particularly interested in reforming Ukraine’s energy sector with a concrete plan on increasing the country’s energy efficiency.
