conditions, goals of the peacekeepers, statement by the head of the German Foreign Ministry: Politics: World: Lenta.ru

In the event of a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine German soldiers as peacekeepers can be used “to maintain peace”, admitted such a scenario is the Minister of Foreign Affairs Germany Annalena Burbock.

The presence of an international military contingent will be one of the ways to ensure a ceasefire, Burbock considered, in addition to security guarantees such as Ukraine’s membership in NATO. When asked about Germany’s possible role in this, she answeredthat “everything that will serve the world in the future will, of course, be supported by the German side with all our might.”

In this case, Bundeswehr troops could be sent to former combat areas.

The German Foreign Minister allowed Ukraine’s membership in NATO in exchange for territory

Formerly Burbock admittedthat Ukraine’s membership in NATO in exchange for territory could become one of the conditions for a future peace agreement with Russia.

“There are various elements of a peace agreement: political and material security guarantees, NATO membership, international presence to maintain the ceasefire, troop withdrawal, territorial issues,” the diplomat noted.

Burbock believes that Ukraine is capable of independently deciding “for what purposes it will sit down at the negotiating table.” The German Foreign Minister also mentioned the settlement of sanctions as a possible condition for peace.

The State Duma called on Berbock to pick up a machine gun

State Duma Deputy Alexey Chepa in response to Burbock’s statement countedthat she should go to the war zone in Ukraine herself and “pick up a machine gun.”

He pointed out that Western leaders called for lowering the age of mobilization in Ukraine. However, the bill failed, and now they will allegedly try to “patch the holes” by sending their own military into the combat zone.

“Berbok is so weak and does not understand what a threat there will be for their soldiers here. This will be a conflict not only until the last Ukrainian, but also until the last German. If she is ready, let her be the first to take the machine gun and show what it will look like,” the parliamentarian said.
