German Chancellor Olaf Scholz says the Group of Seven leading democracies will make clear at their upcoming summit that Ukraine can expect to receive the support it needs “for as long as necessary.”
According to him, Scholz wants to use the meeting with the leaders of the G7 countries in the Bavarian village of Elmau to discuss Ukraine’s long-term prospects.
“We will continue to support Ukraine for as long as necessary. We want to make sure that Russian President (Vladimir Putin’s) calculations do not work out. Putin obviously hopes that everything will fall into place once he has conquered enough land and the international community will return to business as usual. That is an illusion.”
According to Scholz, he and his colleagues from France, Italy and Romania during a visit to Kyiv on Thursday discussed with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy further supplies of weapons to Ukraine, including ammunition and artillery.
The four leaders also supported granting Ukraine candidate status for accession to the European Union.
