		</div><p>Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on Western nations to provide more money to help Ukraine’s military keep fighting Russia.</p>
<p>“The sooner we stop Russia, the sooner we can feel safe,” Mr Zelensky said while addressing defence leaders at a Denmark conference aimed at strengthening financing for weapons, training and demining work in his country.</p>
<p>“We need armaments, munitions for our defence,” he added, speaking via a live link from Ukraine.</p>
<p>The conference in Copenhagen is a follow-up to an April meeting at a US air base in Germany that established the US-led Ukraine Defence Contact Group, which coordinates international military support for Ukraine.</p>
<p>Ukrainian Defence Minister Oleksii Reznikov, who attended the conference in Denmark’s capital, told journalists that acquiring more fighter planes is the country’s priority right now.</p>
<p>“In the first stage, we need fighters. After that, de-mining,” Mr Reznikov said.</p>
<p>Denmark is co-hosting the daylong conference in Copenhagen with Britain and Ukraine. British Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said the goal of the event was securing “concrete steps”.</p>
<p>Before the conference started, the Danish government said it would give Ukraine an extra 820 million kroner (£92 million), which would bring Denmark’s total contribution to the war effort to more than three billion kroner (£338 million).</p>
<p>Part of the money would pay for 130 Danish troops to help train Ukrainian forces in Britain over the coming months.</p>
<p>“We will not let you down,” Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said as she opened the conference.</p>
<p>The Kyiv School of Economics released a report on Wednesday assessing the cost of war damage to Ukraine’s infrastructure at more than 110 billion dollars (£90 billion). The report said 304 bridges and more than 900 health care facilities were either destroyed or damaged.</p>
