““I spoke with the Russian president and I will speak with him again,” Scholz said at a press conference”, — write: www.radiosvoboda.org
The goal of such talks with Putin will be “to always make it clear that his contribution to ending the conflict is to stop aggression and withdraw troops,” Scholz said.
This statement was made after the German chancellor’s phone conversation with US President-elect Donald Trump.
On November 15, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz had a telephone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin. This happened for the first time since December 2022. According to the German government, Scholz “condemned Russia’s aggressive war against Ukraine and called on President Putin to stop it and withdraw the troops.”
Scholz later called the phone conversation with Putin “disappointing” because it did not yield any results.
