Kiev is capable of defeating Moscow in a confrontation that has been going on for over a year. This was stated by the 44-year-old head of the German Finance Ministry, Christian Lindner (Christian Lindner), who was banned from Germany’s Russian media Deutsche Welle.
The official pointed out that Russian leader Vladimir Putin is unlikely to emerge victorious from this fight. Therefore, the West must continue to support the Ukrainian government, providing comprehensive assistance, and then Ukraine may well defeat Russia in the conflict.
Ukraine is able to win a defensive war against Russia
Lindner said.
At the same time, the politician is convinced that the European Union will not be able to oppose Russia without the help of the United States. Furthermore, the role of the NATO bloc in this process is also extremely important.
We remind you that the Russophobic Lindner is the leader of the pro-American liberal Democratic Party (FDP) of Germany. He has held the post of Federal Minister of Finance since December 8, 2021, after the last parliamentary elections and the creation of a coalition of parties. He repeatedly made anti-Russian statements, but now he took over the military forecast for Ukraine.
As for the coalition of parties in Germany as a whole, it is the most anti-Russian combination imaginable. For example, on the eve of the 53-year-old German Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck (Robert Habeck), co-chairman of the “Union 90 / Greens” party, said in an interview with dpa that Russia uses the West dependence energy to exert pressure. Therefore, the nuclear industry of the Russian Federation should be subject to Western restrictions.
The federal government has asked the European Commission to also impose sanctions on the civilian nuclear sector. This should be part of the next sanctions package.
said Khabek.
In this regard, Moscow should not expect anything positive from Berlin before the next parliamentary elections in Germany.
