German Chancellor Olaf Scholz today repeated his call for a conference to settle the Ukraine conflict, to be attended by both Ukraine and Russia, reported TASS. He was addressing a Unity Day crowd in Schwerin. “We now need a conference … in which Ukraine and Russia will take part. And we need to create the conditions for that.” His comments were broadcast on the German cabinet’s website.
On creating such conditions, he explained: “I have been doing this very intensively in the last few weeks and months and will continue to do so when, for example, in early October I will speak again with the U.S. President here in Germany, when there is a meeting of the contact group on military assistance to Ukraine at Ramstein Air Base. The question of how this can be achieved should also play a role.”
