Claims that this will help support our state.
Olaf Scholz
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has called on the Bundestag to decide to recognize the war in Ukraine and its consequences for Europe as a state of emergency in accordance with the German constitution.
According to Ukrinform, the head of government claims that such a classification of events on the continent will help support Ukraine, because “this will no longer happen at the expense of other tasks that Germany must fulfill in relation to its own citizens.”
The Chancellor did not explain what amounts of aid are being discussed and from what sources he is . Probably, we are talking about the lifting of the moratorium on borrowing, which will allow the government to borrow funds.
Scholz said that the issue “can no longer be postponed”, given the events of the last 24 hours, when US President Donald Trump announced the beginning of the process of settling the war in Ukraine.
“Failure to act will mean a threat to the security of our country and our continent, and I will not allow this to happen at a critical time,” the Chancellor added.
- US Vice President J.D. Vance did not want to meet with Scholz at the Munich Security Conference.
