Germany “will strongly support Ukraine together with its friends and partners – financially, fiscally, with humanitarian aid, but also with weapons,” the German Chancellor said
Germany will continue to delivers heavy armament to Ukraine and provide it with financial and humanitarian aid “for as long as necessary”stated again today chancellor Olaf Solz.
Germany “will strongly support Ukraine together with its friends and partners – financially, fiscally, with humanitarian aid, but also with weapons such as heavy artillery, modern anti-aircraft defense systems and anti-aircraft tanks for as long as necessary – for as long as necessary in order to prevent Russia’s heinous aggression,” said Mr. Scholz, speaking at a Conference on Progressive Governance in Berlin.
The chancellor explicitly condemned Russia’s policy and accused the Russian president and his supporters of not only waging war against Ukraine, but “seeing this war as part of a larger crusade against liberal democracy, against the rules-based international order, against freedom and progress , against our way of life and what (Vladimir) Putin calls the ‘collective West’, meaning all of us.” Olaf Solz also referred to the Ukrainian struggle, stressing that “the brave men and women of Ukraine bear the brunt of the war, they are the ones who are killed and maimed, rushed and displaced.”
Liberal democracies have been at the mercy of internal and external attacks for years, the chancellor continued, and spoke of a “new level”, following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. “This also describes the task we have assigned to ourselves, to advance our country, as a free, open and future-oriented society, with equal life opportunities, equal rights and possibilities for all. On February 24, Russia’s reckless attack on Ukraine made this task more difficult, but also more urgent. The governing coalition, which began as a ‘progressive coalition’, stands for exactly that,” he added, clarifying that what matters is “that we agree that the key is to work together – if we agree on the basic premise, we can disagree on the details and tactics”.
