Merz declared that he would continue arming Kyiv until "real negotiations" begin. "For real negotiations to be possible, Putin needs to be clearly shown the hopelessness of his military actions. And that's why I say: we will not weaken our support for Ukraine. We will support the Ukrainian people... show more

❗️Putin must realize that he has no chance of winning this war at the expense of the European order, freedom, and peace — Merz said The German Chancellor stated that ending the war in Ukraine is only possible without conditions for Kyiv's capitulation. According to him, "without Ukraine's consent and without the consent of Europeans, there will be no basis for a genuine, lasting peace in Ukraine." Merz confirmed Germany's readiness to continue supporting Ukraine "for as long as it takes," announcing an increase in aid to €11.5 billion next year. He also spoke in favor of using frozen Russian assets for these purposes.

The UK Secretary of Defense Healy tells Shmyhal that he will do everything to make the war last until the last Ukrainian. ‘Peace is possible through a coalition of the willing, and we will be ready. But, as President Trump said, peace is achieved through strength. And our task is not to put this peace at risk by forgetting about the war. Therefore, we have increased military aid to Ukraine. But Putin has also stepped up his actions. So, we must go further. We must accelerate. We must accelerate and increase support to Ukraine. We must transfer weapons into the hands of Ukrainian fighters faster.’ - SK

MERZ: In Ankara, we want to send strong message of support for Ukraine. Federal government suggests that we, as European NATO allies, make another financial pledge for Kyiv. We hope that Moscow draws the right conclusions from this. We will not waver in our support for Ukraine. We hope to see Russia willing to engage in negotiations soon, because it's only Moscow that has so far refused to talk. We, Europeans and NATO members, together with Ukrainian President have documented our willingness to talk several times. It's now up to Putin to engage in these talks and end this war.

We will continue to support efforts to make sure that Putin can be held accountable for the crime of aggression. To that end, we continue to support the creation of a dedicated tribunal, if that’s what it takes. We want justice for Ukraine and for Ukrainians.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte urged to increase support for Ukraine for the sake of strengthening its position. "Ukraine is in urgent need of our help. Putin will use winter as a weapon. He will try to destroy Ukraine’s power system," Rutte said. He emphasized that on the issue of possible negotiations with Russia, Kyiv should be in a position of strength to be able to decide for itself when and how to start diplomatic efforts to end the war. He noted that Ukraine needs constant defense support from NATO and its partners for this very purpose.

We are thoroughly preparing for our work with partners in the coming months until the end of February. Ukraine must and will be on the world's agenda. We are preparing the necessary negotiations and documents. We also held a meeting on frozen Russian assets, which must be used to protect Ukraine from Russian aggression. We are strengthening our position, which is that of justice.

The European Council must not fail in financing Ukraine — no result would be a historic failure. Putin started this war and must pay for his horrific actions. We support using Russian frozen assets for financing follow-up costs while recognising Belgium’s legitimate concern.

Russian bombings continue every day: Vladimir Putin does not want peace, he can’t be trusted. This is why we will need strong security guarantees and continued support for the Ukrainian army to ensure peace. Weakness will encourage agression.

"There will be no Minsk-3; what we need is real peace." - President Zelenskyy. "Regarding one of today's news stories. Chancellor Scholz told me that he is going to call Putin. Olaf's call, in my opinion, is Pandora's box. Now there may be other conversations, other calls. Just a lot of words. And this is exactly what Putin has wanted for a long time: it is crucial for him to weaken his isolation. Russia's isolation. And to engage in negotiations, ordinary negotiations, that will lead to nothing. As he has been doing for decades. This allowed Russia to change nothing in its policy, to do nothing substantial, and ultimately it led to this war. We understand all these challenges now. We know how to act. And we want to warn everyone: there will be no Minsk-3; what we need is real peace,"the President said.

This is an address to Ukrainian Allies and partners from the frontlines by Andrii Melnyk, a Ukrainian officer. In civilian life, he is a historian and a school principal in Kyiv. ‼️Friends, please listen and share. "There is probably no one in the world who would like to see the war end and peace come as much as the Ukrainian people and the Ukrainian military. But we don't dream of peace at any cost, because then these three years will be in vain. We are fighting here not only for our land. We are fighting not only for our families. We are fighting not only for our state. The most important thing for us is values. Values pushed us to fight the enemy. The values of freedom, the desire to live in our own country, the values of being human beings, not slaves. Every day and every minute of this war, we have felt the support of the world, the support of Europe, the support of the West. And we want to say that we are grateful. We know this, but we ask you not to turn your back on us now, because we will not give up our freedom for nothing. We want normal, fair and just conditions of peace. We stand for peace, but for a just peace. We are for an honest peace. And we are ready for it."

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.

Merz assures the Bundestag that by stealing Russian assets, Europe will be able to arm Zelenskyy for several more years, thereby hastening the end of the war. "We want to use the frozen assets of the Russian Central Bank more effectively to provide Ukraine with a total of approximately 140 billion euros in additional interest-free loans. These additional funds should be used exclusively for armaments and paid in cash. This would ensure Ukraine's military stability for several years. And, ladies and gentlemen, let it be absolutely clear here: we do not want to do this to prolong the war. We want to do this to end this war as quickly as possible."

The content of the negotiations will not be disclosed, but there were a number of things that were unacceptable for the Ukrainian side, Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Heorhii Tykhyi said. "President Zelenskyy said openly that he is ready for a direct negotiation with Putin. We understand that if we want to make progress, we need to have this meeting of leaders, including on the ceasefire," he said during the press conference following Russia-Ukraine-Türkiye peace talks.

Starting tomorrow, we await a ceasefire — this proposal is on the table. A full and unconditional ceasefire, one that lasts long enough to provide a necessary foundation for diplomacy, could significantly bring peace closer. Ukraine has long proposed this, our partners are proposing it, and the whole world is calling for it. We await a clear response from Russia. Russia will have to end this war anyway. The killings must stop. Ukrainian forces will be ready to respond symmetrically— to ensure fairness. We have repeatedly heard from our partners that they are prepared to strengthen sanctions against Russia if Putin rejects a ceasefire. Time will tell. Here in Ukraine, we have absolutely no problem engaging in negotiations, we are ready for any format. I will be in Türkiye this Thursday, May 15, and I expect Putin to come to Türkiye as well. Personally. And I hope that this time, Putin won’t be looking for excuses as to why he “can’t” make it. We are ready to talk, to end this war. Thursday. Türkiye. President Trump has expressed support. All the leaders support this.

Friedrich Merz says that he has always been ready to support the transfer of TAURUS missiles to Ukraine if the decision is coordinated with European partners. "So he [Putin] obviously interprets our willingness to talk to him not as a serious offer to make peace possible, but as weakness. The Ukrainian army should move from exclusively defensive actions to more active ones. For three years, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have only been able to react. It’s time for them to start shaping the course of events. If things continue as they are, if, for example, the most important land connection between Russia and Crimea is destroyed, or if something happens on Crimea itself, where most of the Russian military logistics are located, then that would be an opportunity to bring this country strategically back into the picture finally. I am not convinced that Putin will react positively to weakness and peace offers. He will, he must at some point realize the hopelessness of this war, which means that we must also help Ukraine. I have always said that I would do it [agree to supply TAURUS missiles to Ukraine], but only in coordination with European partners. Our European partners are already supplying cruise missiles. The British are doing it, the French are doing it, and the Americans are doing it anyway. This must be jointly agreed. And if it is coordinated, then Germany should take part," Merz said.
