Germany's Chancellor Merz: How we shape our security guarantees will be decided by Ukraine and its partners — not by Moscow. Ukraine is ready to end the war. It always has been. We too are open to peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia with the support of Europe and... show more

🇩🇪 "Russia is not ready for negotiations to end the war in Ukraine," said German Chancellor Merz, and again, instead of negotiations, he began to threaten new sanctions: "You remember that five weeks ago, together with the heads of European states and governments in Kiev, I presented an initiative to achieve a diplomatic success and start negotiations with Russia. We failed. Russia is not ready for negotiations to end the war in Ukraine. That is why we are now doing exactly what we announced. New sanctions will be introduced. The Commission presented its proposals yesterday. They can be adopted in Brussels next week, against banks from Russia, against energy supplies from Russia. Now another very clear and unambiguous answer will come. We support Ukraine militarily, but we will also take other measures against Russia."

Together with advisors from the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Italy, we are implementing the agreements of the Coalition of the Willing reached in Paris. This is a demonstration of solidarity with Ukraine — especially now, as Russia blocks any real negotiations and shows no desire for peace. We are working jointly on security guarantees for Ukraine, covering military, financial, and political support. This is a continuous process — we remain in constant contact. Yet it is the physical visit to Ukraine that allows our partners to see the real situation with their own eyes. Russia will not stop on its own. It is waging war against the entire free world. It can only be stopped by collective strength and guarantees with real substance. Only together can we achieve a lasting and just peace.

❗️Russia has agreed to accept security guarantees for Ukraine from the US - Kyrylo Budanov. He said: At the previous negotiations, the Russian side has said directly that they will accept the security guarantees that are offered to Ukraine by the United States of America. And that's that. They say directly that yes, we will have to, we are ready to accept what is offered by the United States. For Ukraine. These are our guarantees. And they will have to respect them. And that the idea comes from the United States - they might not like them, but they cannot not respect them. And they said it directly. So I also see certain progress in the issue of security guarantees.

Today, Ukrainian representatives will continue their discussions in the United States with President Trump’s team. Our task now is to obtain full information about what was said in Moscow and what other pretexts Putin has come up with to drag out the war and to pressure Ukraine. Ukraine is prepared for any possible developments, and of course we will work as constructively as possible with all partners to ensure that peace is achieved – and that it is, after all, a dignified peace. Only a dignified peace provides real security, and we fully understand that this requires – and will continue to require – the support of our partners.

Ukraine strikes back with precise, targeted attacks, and unlike Russia, we know exactly what we aim to achieve. Peace, of course. We are not waging war for the sake of war, as Russia does. Even Hamas shows deal-making acumen, but not Putin. For now. Together with our partners, we are creating the conditions to compel Russia to peace. And it will happen. We support all global diplomatic efforts aimed at achieving peace in the Middle East, and we strongly expect that just pressure on Russia will bring peace to Ukraine and to our entire region as well. It is important that the leadership of the United States continue to be effective.

Chancellor Merz: Everything indicates that Putin's imperialist plan would not end with the conquest of Ukraine, but would only begin with it. The fact that Ukraine is also defending our freedom in Europe, that we are defending it together with Ukraine, is not just political bluster. It is a fact from which we must, and already have, drawn consequences: to support Ukraine in its struggle for peace in Europe, to stand by its side. And this may last for a very long time.

We are preparing for negotiations with our partners—both European and American—starting midweek. This includes the Ramstein meeting, discussions in Kyiv, and later, participation in the Munich Security Conference. It is crucial that we all work together to bring about real peace and effective security guarantees—the security of our people, our state, our economic relations, and, importantly, our resource resilience—not just for Ukraine, but for the entire free world. All of this is being decided now—by Ukraine and our partners. Peace is always a collective effort.

Finnish President Stubb: Russia has been waging its war of aggression against Ukraine for almost four years. Its actions are illegal and immoral. We are closer to peace than ever during the war, but at the same time we cannot be sure whether Russia is ready for peace. Peace is most often a compromise, and we must prepare for the fact that all parts of a peace agreement will likely not meet our sense of justice. However, we will do everything we can to ensure that Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity are preserved. Ukraine is part of a free and democratic Europe now and in the future. We will continue to support Ukraine, we will not tire, and together with our allies we will ensure that Russia will never again attack its neighbor.

💬 "Moscow speaks about peace while launching brutal strikes daily on densely populated residential areas in major Ukrainian cities. Russia demonstrates its complete disregard for international peace efforts led by the United States. Russia shows unrelenting will to continue its war of aggression against Ukraine. Let us keep it in perspective: Moscow has not moved one inch away from its genocidal and maximalist war aims. Russia continues to focus on elimination of Ukraine as a state and Ukrainians as a nation. It is now crystal clear that Russia is the major and only obstacle to peace. On the other hand, Ukraine has always been and remains committed to peace. We have taken concrete steps towards peace, unlike Russia, which continues to drag its feet and commit atrocities. Only from the pressure of the world on the Russian Federation, from all collective efforts to strengthen Ukraine, our air defense, our forces – only on this depends when the war will end", Chargée d’Affaires Khrystyna Hayovyshyn at the Security Council “Maintenance of peace and security of Ukraine” 🇺🇳

❗️The basis of future peace negotiations on Ukraine should be the current frontline, — Merz Ukraine cannot be forced to make territorial concessions, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said at a press conference with Estonian Prime Minister Kristen Michal: "The Europeans and the Americans bear great responsibility in this conflict. All of us — Ukraine, the Europeans, and the Americans — want this war in Ukraine to finally end. We want peace for Ukraine and security for Europe." The Chancellor added that Ukraine needs strong armed forces and reliable security guarantees in the event of a peace agreement with Russia. Both Merz and Michal said they would like EU member states to reach an agreement on the use of frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine before the EU summit in Brussels in December.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz at the MSC in Munich: „Russia has to give up this terrible war against Ukraine, and we have to do everything that is needed to bring them to the point, where they see no further advantages in continuing this terrible war. We are not yet there. But this war is now lasting longer than the Second World War. It’s terrible. Russia has it in its hand to stop it, but we also have it in our hands, America and Europe together with Ukraine to bring them to this point.“

Russia, in its current state, needs war to maintain its grip on power, and it proves its intent to keep fighting by bombarding Ukraine every single day. This week alone, Russia has launched nearly 1,220 aerial bombs, over 850 attack drones, and more than 40 missiles of various types against our people. Ukraine is defending itself – we stand and fight thanks to the bravery of our warriors and the support of our partners. But we need more air defense systems to protect Ukrainians’ lives. Europe and the world must be better protected from such evil and prepared to confront it. This requires a strong, united foreign policy and pressure on Putin, who started this war and is now expanding it globally. Together with Europe, the U.S., and all our partners, we can end this war with a just and lasting peace.

Today I spoke with the President of Finland, Stubb, and the Chancellor of Germany, Merz. Among other topics, we discussed the latest developments from Türkiye, cooperation with the United States, and Ukraine’s European future. I am grateful for their support. There was also a meeting in the “Ramstein” format. We are preparing decisions to support our joint defense production with partners. This is long-term security: our guarantees, European guarantees, guarantees for everyone that Russian aggression will not be able to expand and will not be rewarded. Russia must truly feel that war is worse than peace. That is exactly why sanctions are needed — especially against their oil trade. Sustained defense support for Ukraine is also essential, to protect our people and to defend our positions.
