In a comment, he noted that he has already held telephone talks with Trump on this issue and is in contact with his security advisers.
Scholz stressed that any decision on Ukraine should take into account the position of the Ukrainian government. Despite domestic political challenges, including the collapse of the coalition in Germany, the chancellor continues to insist on supporting Ukraine. This topic promises to be a key one in the German elections in February.
Amid discussions in Germany over the supply of Taurus missiles to Ukraine, Scholz remains cautious, fearing an escalation of the war. However, during a recent visit to Kiev, the Chancellor announced a new military aid package for Ukraine, saying that Germany will support Ukraine as much as it takes to counter the aggression of the terrorist country.
