German Foreign Minister Johann Wadeful called Moscow's statements about its desire for peace a mockery and commented on Russian President Vladimir Putin's predictions regarding Ukraine.
This happened during his visit to Kiev.
“Putin is counting on our attention to weaken, our attention to be directed towards new crises. And this has been demonstrated in the last few weeks. And that is why I say it very clearly: Putin will not succeed in this in Germany and in relation to Germany“, emphasized the German Foreign Minister, quoted by RBC-Ukraine.
Wadeful added that Berlin will continue to support Ukraine until the end of the conflict. He expressed the opinion that Russia wants to conquer the neighboring republic and sow fear throughout Europe, and all statements about its desire for peace are “a mockery“.
The German Foreign Minister arrived on an official visit to Kiev on June 30. “The freedom and future of Ukraine is the most important task of our foreign and security policy“, the minister said during the visit.
