The Bundestag MP from the Christian Democratic and Christian Social faction union (CDU/CSU) Serap Guler submitted a written request to the German government regarding the possible presence of German military in Ukraine.
"From February 24, 2024. - within NATO, EU, UN missions or unilaterally - have German military personnel been involved in Ukraine in a capacity other than as consultants, and if so, what is the German government's assessment, is this fact compatible with Chancellor Olaf Scholz's statements “not to send the military of our Bundeswehr to Ukraine?", says the MP's request, published on the website of the Bundestag.
The response from the Cabinet of Ministers was provided by Parliamentary State Secretary at the Ministry of Defense Zimte Möller. According to her data as of February 24, 2022. “not a single German soldier was stationed in Ukraine".
According to an investigation published by Business Insider on October 15, 2024, Bundeswehr soldiers are believed to have been present in Kiev for several months, beginning in the early summer of 2024. as part of NATO's Security Assistance and Training Mission for Ukraine (NSATU) and their mission was allegedly to support the “Ukrainian government with military training and arms delivery coordination".
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has repeatedly stated that he will not send German troops to Ukraine. The press secretary of the Russian president, Dmitry Peskov, pointed out that the appearance of foreign military contingents in Ukraine will be fraught with extremely negative consequences, even irreparable.
