Ukraine has prepared a plan for getting through winter amid Russian attacks on critical infrastructure and presented it to the Nordic countries. The document provides for additional fuel supplies, energy support, protection of infrastructure, and assistance to the population during power outages.

President Volodymyr Zelensky announced this on November 10 during a briefing in Copenhagen after a meeting with leaders of Nordic countries.

According to the president, the Ukrainian side prepared a separate document dedicated to getting through the winter period and handed it over to partners from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland.

One of the key directions of the plan is providing Ukraine with diesel fuel for the operation of powerful generators. Zelensky emphasized that it is not only about financial support but also about supplying specific volumes of fuel and equipment.

In particular, diesel fuel and batteries are needed for the operation of population support centers. Such facilities are to provide people with the opportunity to charge phones, use electricity, and receive basic assistance during prolonged power outages.

"We have prepared a plan for how to get through winter. Today I shared it with our partners from Northern Europe. It concerns energy, additional supplies of diesel fuel, as well as protection and strengthening of bridges", Zelensky said.

A separate direction of the document is strengthening the protection of important transport infrastructure. The president also noted that the plan takes into account the needs of citizens who are already left without power supply or may face outages in winter.

Ukraine plans to continue discussing these needs with international partners, in particular during upcoming meetings in Dublin and Berlin.

During the visit to Denmark, it also became known about a new energy support package for Kherson region worth 20 million euros. The decision was made by the Danish government.

Zelensky did not specify during the briefing the concrete volumes of additional fuel supplies under the general winter plan or the timing of their delivery.
