The German Defense Minister assured that support for Ukraine will remain stable regardless of changes in the government. Negotiations on a €3 billion aid package are still ongoing due to budgetary issues.

Despite possible changes in the government, Germany's support for Ukraine will remain stable and resolute. At the same time, he noted that negotiations on a 3 billion aid package are still ongoing. German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said this during a joint briefing with President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, UNN reports.

"First of all, I would like to emphasize that, regardless of which government comes after February 23, Germany's support will remain reliable, strong and resolute. There is no doubt about it. As for the 3 billion package, we are doing everything we can to ensure that it is there. We have not yet completed the government's negotiations because it is a matter of funds. They are not there - this is the government's fiscal problem with the budget, and we need to solve it. We are still trying to find a solution, but we have not yet completed our negotiation process, we are working on it," Pistorius said.

The German Defense Minister added that he was optimistic.
