US President Joe Biden and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz held a telephone conversation this Sunday in which they agreed to describe the recent Russian nuclear threats as “irresponsible”.

“Leaders have agreed that Russia’s recent nuclear threats are irresponsible,” the White House said in an official statement.

“They have underscored their continued commitment by the United States and Germany to provide Ukraine with the economic, humanitarian, and security support it needs to defend itself against Russian aggression,” Washington added.

Both leaders have also addressed Scholz’s recent visit to Beijing and have “affirmed their common commitments to respect an international order based on respect for rules, Human Rights and fair trade practices”.
