German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul's unannounced visit to Kyiv highlights Germany's strong support for Ukraine amidst ongoing tensions with Russia. Wadephul criticized Russian President Putin for his ambitions to conquer Ukraine. He vowed that Germany would persist in aiding Ukraine through military provisions, humanitarian assistance, and economic support. This visit is particularly significant as it underscores the EU's need to step up its commitment to Ukraine, especially in light of the uncertain future of American support under the previous administration, which had raised concerns among European allies.
'We will continue to stand firmly by Ukraine's side so that it can continue to defend itself successfully with modern air defense and other weapons, with humanitarian and economic aid,' Wadephul said.
Wadephul slammed Russia's President Vladimir Putin, saying the Russian leader wanted to conquer and subjugate Ukraine at any price.
