Chancellor of Germany Friedrich Merz in Kyiv
(from 27:48 - funny moment 😅)
Friedrich Merz and I outlined the details of today’s meeting at our press conference. Today, in a difficult security situation, when Russian drone strikes are taking place virtually every hour, the Chancellor of Germany is here in Kyiv. And this is the right signal of support for Ukraine and of the courage of Germany and all of Europe.
But Germany is not only helping Ukraine – we are helping each other. Ukraine and Germany are already jointly producing drones. Ukraine will purchase more weapons and equipment from Germany. Joint work on creating UAV units in Germany has already begun, and we are ready to help with training and experience. We discussed this today as well. We are also ready to work on expanding the use of our energy protection technologies – we discussed this too. Friedrich, thank you for your support!
