Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal of Ukraine on Monday held a meeting in Kyiv with the co-chairman of the Social Democratic Party of Germany, Lars Klingbeil, and leader of the Social Democratic faction in the Bundestag, Rolf Mützenich, to discuss weapon deliveries, energy recovery, and humanitarian demining.
That’s according to Shmyhal’s posting on Telegram, seen by Ukrinform.
He noted that Germany is Europe’s leader in terms of the amount of aid provided to Ukraine in all areas, and thanked co-chairmen Klingbeil and Mützenich for their solidarity.
“We discussed our needs and arms supplies to Ukraine. German weapons today are saving lives and paving the way to victory and peace. We also highly appreciate Germany’s help in restoring our energy infrastructure and their readiness to provide support in humanitarian demining,” the Head of Government wrote.
He added that the parties also raised, among other things, the issue of sanctions against Russia’s nuclear industry and the creation of a special international tribunal for Russia’s crimes committed in Ukraine.
Shmyhal received assurances from German partners that Berlin would continue to support Kyiv in all sectors.
As reported earlier, Co-chairman of the Social Democratic Party of Germany, Lars Klingbeil, and leader of the Social Democratic faction in the Bundestag, Rolf Mützenich, arrived in Kyiv. Their agenda includes negotiations with government officials and lawmakers.
