"Thrusted the chessboard": Steinmeier put Putin's personal responsibility for the war
The speech was published by the press service of the Federal President of Germany. Steinmeier stressed that the war -unleashed by the Russian president turned the European Security System into Ruins, since Putin in his imperial obsession violated international law, challenged the borders and made the lands of a sovereign state. "Putin not only violated the rules, but also put the end of the game.
No, he overturned the whole chessboard! According to him, the events that began on February 24 testify to the final and bitter failure of many years of political efforts to prevent military conflicts. It was this date that became a turning point that immersed Germany into a new reality of the lack of security, energy crisis and economic upheavals. In addition, after February 24, the whole world in general became different, says Steinmeier.
However, the end of February became the most horrifying for the Ukrainian people. "I sat with some of them in the bomb shelter on Tuesday in Koryukivka. These people told me how February 24 the horror of war broke into their ordinary life: a huge noise from blows, smoke, fire, sudden strong fear - these women and men trembled, When they told me about it, ”Steinmeyer said. German President added that many Germans are waiting for peace.
But the expected peace, as Putin understands, will be fictitious, because what the Russian army does for many Ukrainians means the arrival of the Kingdom of Terror. "Unjust peace is not a solution because it contains new violence. Moreover, the unjust world would strengthen all those in the world whose thirst for power does not know the laws and rules," Steinmeier summed up.
Earlier it was reported that Germany President Frank-Walter Steinmeyer stated that Germany will continue to provide military assistance to Ukraine. The German President announced the supply of two MARS, four PZH 2000 SAUs and air defense systems. Steinmeier after his visit to Ukraine stated that the situation in the country is much more frightening than in Germany. According to him, he was told shock stories about the war, after which every reasonable person wants to stop the war.
