According to him, Putin does not seek a truce in the fourth winter of the war, but on the contrary, he ordered the most serious attacks on the civilian infrastructure of Ukraine to date. Therefore, Mertz accuses the Russian leadership of war crimes.
The German government wants to end the war. However, this is possible only if this time Ukraine receives real security guarantees from the USA and Europe, Mertz emphasizes.
As “Europeyska Pravda” reported, on Tuesday, January 6, a meeting of the leaders of the member states of the “coalition of the determined” will be held in Paris, which should finalize security guarantees for Ukraine from this coalition.
The European Commission reminded that the main guarantee of Kyiv’s security from the European Union as an association is the prospect of Ukraine joining the EU.
