War against Ukraine: Wadephul shortly before Independence Day in Kyiv
For the fourth time since taking office 16 months ago, Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul is visiting Ukraine. On the eve of a special day for the country, he wants to give a sign of solidarity.
German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul has arrived in Ukraine for a solidarity visit, just before the country's 35th independence anniversary. He condemned Russia's increasing drone and missile attacks, accusing Moscow of "indiscriminate murder of civilians" and targeted destruction of energy infrastructure. Wadephul stated that Russia aims to destroy the livelihoods of Ukrainians and break their will to resist, citing July and August as the deadliest months for civilians in over four years.
He pledged further German support, hoping to prompt Russia into peace negotiations. This is Wadephul's fourth visit to Ukraine in 16 months.
