While German Chancellor Olaf Scholz can be praised for sending air defense systems to Ukraine, he ruined his own reputation by deciding not to send Taurus missiles, said former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba (2020-2024) in a wide-ranging interview with ETV’s “Esimene stuudio.”
Main points:
- Russia is trying to scare countries into not helping Ukraine;
- Nuclear deterrence strategies have been scrapped;
- Russia cannot win the war alone;
- Ukraine cannot be held hostage by countries’ domestic politics;
- Russia has friends who will die for them, Ukraine does not have friends who will provide enough weapons;
- Countries publicly rejecting Macron’s plan [to send Western non-combat troops to Ukraine] was an embarrassment;
- Putin does not need reasons to escalate;
- Trump will realize Putin is the problem, not Ukraine;
- History will judge German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
Nah it probably wont. He has gotten away with so many actual crimes, so this wont change anything.
Which one do you mean? Allowing hundreds of billions of tax payer money to be stolen, taking bribes for not pursuing said theft, or the incident where he had someone killed in policy custody to “extract” drugs?
Yes.
