Ukraine receives more than €7 billion in military aid from Germany

According to the chancellor of Germany, he had a telephone conversation with US President Joe Biden, during which they discussed the urgency of further support for Ukraine.

Germany is providing more than seven billion euros in military goods in 2024, Olaf Scholz announced on his social networks.

The German leader drew attention to the fact that he and Joe Biden are united and steadfast in their desire to continue providing Ukraine with financial, humanitarian and military support.

It is worth noting that the White House also released a similar statement. It says that the countries' leaders coordinated the continued unwavering support of Ukraine in the war against Russia.

The conversation between the US and German leaders occurred when the US Congress and the EU were stalling decisions on further multibillion-dollar aid to Ukraine.

Macron promised Ukraine long-range missiles and bombs

Almost simultaneously with Berlin, French leader Emmanuel Macron announced military aid to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

According to him, Paris intends to transfer 40 long-range Scalp missiles and "several hundred bombs" to Ukraine.

Moreover, Macron officially confirmed that he plans to come to Kyiv.

As you know, France is now focused on concluding a bilateral agreement on security guarantees with Ukraine.

After these deliveries, I myself will go to Ukraine in February and finish the work on these texts, said Emmanuel Macron.

Yes or no. Ukraine's allies have made a clear demand to Putin

Putin must give a clear answer

Ukraine's allies in the "Coalition of the Determined" have officially confirmed that they are already developing options for monitoring the ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. Against this background, they have begun demanding that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin clearly respond to US President Donald Trump's ceasefire proposal - to accept or reject it.

Points of attention

  • Paris and London are collaborating with the US on proposing ceasefire monitoring scenarios, emphasizing the importance of a quick response from Russia.
  • Barrot highlights the significance of Ukraine's acceptance of the US ceasefire proposal, calling for a swift response from Putin, whether affirmative or negative.

Putin must give a clear answer

The statement on this occasion was made by the head of French diplomacy, Jean-Noel Barrot, at a joint press conference with his British counterpart, David Lemmy.

According to the diplomat, on April 4, the military leadership of several countries participating in the "coalition of the determined" will arrive in Ukraine.

The main goal of this meeting is to discuss options for security guarantees with the Ukrainians.

The head of the French Foreign Ministry draws attention to the fact that a powerful Ukrainian army should be the first level of guaranteeing peace.

That is why our military command will be in Kyiv today," Barro emphasized.

He also confirmed that Paris and London are in contact with the US, proposing scenarios for monitoring the ceasefire.

As the diplomat noted, Ukraine "made an important concession" when it agreed to the US proposal for an unconditional ceasefire.

Now Russia must respond to the US proposal. Whether it is a "yes" or "no" answer, it must be a quick one.
