Gerade auf dem Weg zur neuen regionalen Partnerschaft 🇺🇦🤝🇩🇪

Ein gutes Treffen mit den Mitgliedern des Brandenburger Landtages J.Funke & @Julian_Bruening, Kollegen aus Wirtschaftsministerium & StK über EU-Beitritt der Ukraine, Erfahrungsaustausch und wirtschaftliche Beziehungen

[Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz @bundeskanzler]

In der Nacht auf Pfingstsonntag hat Russland zivile Ziele in der Ukraine massiv attackiert. Erneut kam dabei das Oreschnik-Raketensystem zum Einsatz. Die Bundesregierung verurteilt diese rücksichtslose Eskalation scharf. Deutschland steht weiter fest an der Seite der Ukraine.

Strong signal by 🇪🇺 at today’s high-level meeting of the International Coalition for the Return of Ukrainian children: malign Russian actors responsible for the deportation and unlawful adoption of 🇺🇦 children will be held accountable. #StandwithUkraine

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

#Ukraine is commemorating the 40th anniversary of the #Chornobyl nuclear disaster today, This is also a reminder of Russia’s relentless attacks against #Ukraine & its energy infrastructure, putting in danger nuclear safety.

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

This heinous Russian attack on Lviv‘s @UNESCO World Heritage site is another attack on #Ukraine‘s history and identity. We are committed to protecting 🇺🇦 cultural heritage, notably through our support for the Ukraine Art Aid Center.

I was honoured to meet a group of highly dedicated and engaged 🇺🇦 mayors who shared their experiences how to maintain their daily lives during Russia‘s brutal war. We discussed ongoing 🇩🇪 support and how we can learn from #Ukraine to increase our municipalities‘ resilience.

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

Russlands brutale Angriffe gegen die #Ukraine gehen unvermindert weiter, töten Menschen in ihren Wohnungen, zerstören zivile Infrastruktur. Wir stehen entschlossen auf 🇺🇦Seite ua mit über 200 Mio € Zivil-&Katastrophenschutz. Putins zynische Zermürbungstaktik darf nicht aufgehen

Today marks the Day of Resistance to the occupation of Crimea. 12 years ago, Russia illegally annexed Crimea and began its aggression against #Ukraine. Crimea remains part of 🇺🇦 and Germany will continue to support Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression! #CrimeaIsUkraine

[Iryna Samchenko @IrynaSamchenko]

Am Nationalen Gebetstag haben wir gemeinsam mit deutschen Freunden um Frieden gebetet.

In der Marienkirche, die uns daran erinnert, dass auf Zerstörung Wiederaufbau folgt.
Dass Wunden heilen können.
Doch Heilung beginnt mit Wahrheit.
Und Frieden beginnt mit Gerechtigkeit.

We condemn the repeated attack on 🇺🇦 energy infrastructure, just before the next round of talks. Putin wants to cause a humanitarian catastrophe and cannot even stop his attacks for more than three days. We will increase our pressure on Russia and our support for #Ukraine!

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

We ensure that Russia’s strategy to cause a humanitarian crisis with its brutal attacks on energy infrastructure in 🇺🇦 won‘t work! This winter, Germany has already provided more than 380 million euros to strengthen Ukraine’s energy system and deliver humanitarian assistance.

[Auswärtiges Amt @AuswaertigesAmt]

Angriffe auf Zivilisten im Zug sind ein weiterer Tiefpunkt von Putins Grausamkeit in seinem Angriffskrieg gegen die #Ukraine. Russland muss einem Waffenstillstand & ernsthaften Verhandlungen endlich zustimmen. Wir unterstützen die Ukraine weiter & erhöhen den Druck auf Russland.

[Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz @bundeskanzler]

Russland eskaliert mit dem Einsatz einer Oreschnik-Rakete gegen zivile ukrainische Energieinfrastruktur in Lwiw erneut, während Ukraine, USA und Europa sich für Frieden einsetzen. Drohgebärden sollen Angst machen, aber sie werden nicht wirken. Wir stehen an der Seite der Ukraine.

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

We condemn another brutal attack on Kyiv and its civilian infrastructure! Russia wants to cause a humanitarian crisis by cutting off heating and electricity. We will continue our support for 🇺🇦 and its infrastructure and increase pressure on Russia to stop this brutal war!

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

Germany will continue to engage in political, financial and military support for 🇺🇦 and we stand ready to support robust security guarantees! The Paris declaration shows our joint commitment for a just and lasting peace: https://t.co/foyrPr4I5X

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

Russia continues to attack 🇺🇦 civilians and civilian infrastructure! We will not waver from our support for #Ukraine, especially its air defences, against such brutal attacks!

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

Russia continues its brutal attacks on 🇺🇦 cities! We will continue to support #Ukraine‘s defences! The 🇩🇪 budget for 2026 will entail additional 3 billion euros for 🇺🇦 military support adding up to 12 billion in total!

We welcome today’s EU Enlargement Report on Ukraine. It reaffirms Ukraine’s great progress and determination to advance on its European path even amid Russia’s full-scale war.

We continue comprehensive reforms, including in the areas of rule of law, anti-corruption, and governance as the foundation of our democratic and European future.

I am particularly proud that Chapter 31 “Foreign, Security, and Defense Policy”, which is in the scope of responsibility of @MFA_Ukraine, gained a high estimate. We did a great job in synchronizing the sanctions against Russia with the EU and ensuring 99% alignment with the EU’s foreign policy statements.

Ukraine has completed the screening process and stands ready to open negotiation clusters—the next logical step to reflect progress in political decisions.

Ukraine’s membership in the EU is a security guarantee for our country and the best long-term investment in the entire European continent’s security.

By integrating Ukraine, the EU strengthens its own stability, unity, and resilience. A stronger and safer Europe is impossible without Ukraine as its integral part.

[GERonOstpolitik @GERonOstpolitik]

Russia continues its brutal campaign against civilians and energy infrastructure in 🇺🇦! We remain steadfast in our support for #Ukraine and will continue to increase pressure on Russia as with the 19th sanctions package last week!
