NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said that after the end of the war in Ukraine he plans to "drink to excess" together with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. He made this remark on the Dutch TV program "Pauw & De Wit."
"We'll get drunk with him somewhere in the Swiss Alps. We'll sit on a summit and drink ourselves silly. That's our plan," Rutte said.
The NATO Secretary General said that he has already discussed this with Zelensky and promised to bring red wine to the meeting. According to him, the Ukrainian president had previously said he wanted to relax in the Swiss mountains after the war ends.
Rutte also said that he sincerely respects the president of Ukraine and that they consult weekly.
Rutte's view on how the war in Ukraine might end
Earlier, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said that Russia's war against Ukraine is unlikely to have a clear winner. He noted that such wars always end with a peace agreement, which is often a kind of compromise.
Rutte also spoke about how Europe must remain vigilant against potential Russian aggression even after the war in Ukraine finally ends.
