As you know, the Chancellor does not agree with the Pope on this issue
- government spokesman Steffen Hebestreit said on Monday in Berlin.

"It is true that Ukraine is defending itself against the aggressor," the spokesman added, noting that they are also receiving a lot of international support to be able to defend themselves against an aggressive war that violates international law.
