In particular, Olaf Scholtz expressed his disappointment with the fact of Beijing's restrained position from condemning the Russian invasion of Ukraine at a meeting of the G20 finance ministers, although he welcomes his efforts on nuclear de -escalation. "It is good that China has repeated a clear signal against nuclear weapons recently in its plan on 12 points and clearly opposed the use of biological and chemical weapons of mass destruction.
My message of Beijing is clear: use your influence in Moscow to encourage the withdrawal of Russian troops, and Do not supply weapons to the aggressor, Russia, "Scholt said in his address. According to Scholtz, it is fair to expect to discuss his "peace plan" with the main interested party - Ukrainians and President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky from China. Also, German Chancellor does not yet believe that the Kremlin's head Vladimir Putin is ready to negotiate "just peace" in Ukraine.
"Is Putin ready at all to negotiate these principles and just peace? There is nothing at this time. However, negotiations with a gun attached to the temple - except for his own obedience," said Scholtz. Reuters notes that the German Chancellor's speech in the German Parliament caused stormy applause.
