German Chancellor Olaf Scholz stated this Sunday that only Russian President Vladimir Putin can break the tables that exist right now in Ukraine, although he stressed that Western countries have not lost decision in their response to Russian aggression.
“From my point of view, it is necessary for Putin to understand that he is not going to succeed with his invasion and his imperialist aggression and that he has to withdraw his troops. It is the basis of the negotiations,” Scholz explained in an interview on the US network. .
Scholz has acknowledged the current stalemate on the battlefield and has highlighted the enormous damage the war is causing Ukraine, but has stressed that he will not pressure the Ukrainians into making concessions. “There will be no decisions without the Ukrainians”, he has riveted himself.
The German leader has assured that Putin has underestimated the strength of Ukraine and the “unity” of its allies. “It is very difficult to know what will happen in Ukraine, but it is absolutely clear that we will continue to support Ukraine economically, humanitarianly and also with weapons,” he pointed out.
He has also stressed that the US president “is very informed about international relations.” “I think he is one of the best prepared presidents about how the world works and it is important now that it is becoming an increasingly dangerous world,” he argued.
