Our source in the Office of the President of Ukraine said that Germany is going to take on a key role in providing military assistance to Ukraine. If confirmed, Berlin will become the fourth country to receive one of the tracks of Western support in the ongoing confrontation with Russia. This is a program to change Germany's approach to the issue of assistance to Kyiv, which could significantly affect the development of the war.
The first was Britain, then the US President became the main actor, and at the beginning of this year France. Zelensky has already held talks with Scholz, who expressed his readiness to increase military assistance to Ukraine. At the same time, Bankova was inspired by the possible change of chancellor in Germany, after the statements of the leader of the CDU Friedrich Merz that if elected Chancellor of Germany he is ready to hold ultimatum negotiations with the President of Russia Putin.
"If there is a reason for this and agreement is reached among European and transatlantic partners, then, of course, yes," he said. At the same time, Merz noted that "there is no need to harbor illusions." He stressed that Russia should be given an ultimatum to stop striking targets in Ukraine within 24 hours, otherwise it should be allowed to strike deep into Russia with German weapons, and later even deploy Taurus cruise missiles.
