Refusing to oppose Russia will mean strengthening it, said the German Chancellor.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin leaves Germany and his partners with no choice but to supply Ukraine with weapons to fight the Russian invasion. He made the remarks at the Federal Congress of the German Confederation of Trade Unions in Berlin, according to the Wirtschaftswoche. That is why Germany supports Ukraine.
According to the Chancellor, the President of Russia abandoned the principle of inviolability of European borders, implementing the “revanchist project of the Russian Empire.” Failure to do so would mean “strengthening the aggressor in his criminal activities.”
He also added that Germany intends not only to reduce imports of Russian gas and oil, but also to reduce it to zero as soon as possible. At the same time, the Chancellor opposed the immediate embargo on Russian gas.
The day before, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz promised Ukraine further support in the fight against Russia.
It will be recalled that Scholz said earlier that he does not plan a visit to Ukraine in the near future and considers it wrong for Kyiv to refuse to receive President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
Commenting on a possible visit to Ukraine, he mentioned the refusal of the administration of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky to approve German Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier and noted that it “hinders the case.”
