German Chancellor Olaf Scholz had to go against the Russian lobby in Germany, which has existed in the country for the past 20 years. Andreas Umland, a German political scientist and analyst at the Stockholm Center for Eastern European Studies, stated this on the air of the FREEDOM TV channel, answering the question \u201cWhy does Scholz’s support infuriate the Kremlin so much?\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scholz’s support is in the gap of the previous three chancellors – Merkel, Schroeder, Kohl, who had good relations with the Russian leader, even with the last Soviet leader. There was some kind of friendship between Yeltsin and Kohl, Schroeder and Putin, Merkel was less warm towards Putin, but they also had some kind of, let\u2019s say, diplomatic relations, \u201d – he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The political scientist added that the German chancellor distanced himself from Putin on February 27 rhetorically. Scholz is not completely unambiguous, concerning military assistance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scholz has now finally distanced himself from Putin. Merkel should have done this earlier. Since February 27, when he delivered a historic speech in the German parliament, he took the side, at least rhetorically, on the side of Ukraine. I know that this has often not yet been translated into sufficient financial assistance, especially with regard to military equipment. But in its doctrine, in its rhetoric, in its foreign policy ideology, Germany is now unambiguously on the side of Ukraine,” – summed up Andreas Umland.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

During a working visit to Germany, the Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal held a meeting with the Federal Chancellor of Germany Olaf Scholz. The parties discussed several issues to support Ukraine and strengthen the security of the whole of Europe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For his part, Olaf Scholz assured that Germany would support Ukraine as long as it would be needed in terms of military and financial assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the beginning of the full-scale war, Germany supplied Ukraine with only protective equipment or helmets, but today the military also receives modern weapons: air defense systems, jet systems, and artillery systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier, at the beginning of August, the Armed Forces of Ukraine received the second batch of Gepard self-propelled artillery installations from Germany. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
