Rutte Reveals Plan to Celebrate End of War with Zelenskyy in Swiss Alps
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte shared details during a Dutch talk show about how he and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy plan to mark the end of the conflict.
According to Українська Правда, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has revealed how he and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy plan to celebrate the end of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The remarks were made during an appearance on the Dutch talk show Pauw & De Wit, as reported by European Pravda.
During the broadcast, the moderator noted that a documentary about former NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg mentioned how he and Zelenskyy "talked about going fishing when this is all over." In this context, the host asked Rutte whether he shared similar plans with the current Ukrainian president.
Mountain Plans in Switzerland
Responding to the moderator, the head of the Alliance confirmed that a specific arrangement is already in place for the post-war period.
"Yes, we'll get drunk in the Swiss Alps. We'll sit on a Swiss mountain and get thoroughly drunk. That's the plan," Rutte stated, as cited by the Ukrainian media outlet. When the interviewer asked for clarification on whether they had already scheduled the gathering, the NATO chief answered in the affirmative.
Regular Contact and Conflict Assessment
During the same talk show appearance, Mark Rutte expressed deep admiration for the Ukrainian president. He noted that he holds "immense admiration" for Volodymyr Zelenskyy and mentioned that the two officials communicate on a weekly basis.
In addition to personal reflections, the NATO Secretary General shared his perspective on the broader geopolitical situation. Rutte expressed his belief that the ongoing war initiated by the Russian Federation against Ukraine is unlikely to end with a decisive victory by either side on the battlefield.
