Description
✅ The recent visit of German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier to the conflict zone in Ukraine’s East displays a divide between the roles of Germany's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Chancellery;
✅ “Steinmeier in a certain way was transporting a mixed message, which looks like a peace offer but actually it’s an admission that the ceasefire has been broken until then;”
✅ “Both sides of the conflict are guilty of ceasefire violations, but the Russian side much more;”
✅ People close to the chancellery in Berlin regard themselves as allies to Ukraine, while people in the MFA would rather define themselves as facilitators.
Hromadske spoke to Konrad Schuller, German Journalist and Writer at the YES Conference on September, 16th in Kyiv.
