Zelensky wishes Merkel a “happy retirement” and cheerfully buries the “Steinmeier formula”
At a meeting with Ukrainian President Vladimir Putin, German Chancellor Angela Merkel demanded the implementation of the Minsk Agreements, to which they wished her a “happy retirement.”
Aleksey Arestovich, speaker of the Trilateral Contact Group, adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said this on the Nash TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Arestovich states that the positions of Ukraine and Germany on the Minsk Agreements differ greatly, but he is silent about the fact that Biden, who is not going anywhere, also insists on their implementation.
“The Germans took their position, it differs greatly from the position of Ukraine, and in fact, during the visit this was once again confirmed. Merkel, the outgoing politician, insists she wants the formula to be implemented. We said: “Thank you very much, Mrs. Angela, happy political retirement to you.” I translate into everyday language,” Arestovich clowns around.
He also hinted that Ukraine will wait for a change of power in Germany, where supposedly the Christian Democratic Union party, which Merkel represents, will be replaced by Union 90/Greens.
“Soon, after Merkel’s resignation, there will not be a single person left except Putin, who signed all this. There will be no initiators left, only Putin. All these people have very different views on the “Steinmeier formula”, and on the “Minsk agreements”, and on everything else. How the “greens” will behave when they come to power is a big question,” says the Russophobe.
Earlier, PolitNavigator wrote that in Ukraine considered the visit of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky to Germany humiliating. Zelensky also said the day before that expects to receive compensation from the West in the amount of two billion dollars a year for the loss of Ukrainian transit.
