The Foreign Minister stated that the actions of the German authorities are disrespectful to Ukrainian soldiers who are defending Europe from Russia.
Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba expressed his opinion that the use of Ukrainian symbols was banned in Berlin on May 8-9 . The Foreign Minister stated that the position of official Berlin is incorrect in relation to all those who are currently defending democracy from Russian aggression.
On his Twitter page, Kuleba said that German authorities took the wrong step by equating the symbols of Ukraine and Russia.
“Berlin made a mistake by banning Ukrainian symbols. It is impossible to put the symbols of Ukraine and Russia on the same level. And taking away the Ukrainian flag from the participants of the peaceful rally is an attack on anyone who is currently defending Europe and Germany from Russian aggression with this flag in his hands, “the minister said in a statement.
It will be recalled that German officials justified the decision to ban Ukrainian symbols at events on May 8-9 by saying that they, along with Russian ones, could justify or glorify the war in Ukraine.
