At the moment, about 800 thousand refugees from Ukraine are registered in Germany, who were forced to leave their homes due to the war unleashed by Russia.. This was announced by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz at a briefing on the results of a special meeting of the European Council.

According to Ukrinform, in his speech, the German politician said that his compatriots support the citizens of Ukraine at a difficult moment and are ready to help those who find themselves in a difficult situation due to Russia's actions..

“Today, about 800,000 people are registered in the Central Register of Foreigners in Germany.. Ukrainians. This shows how much the citizens of our country and many communities in Germany contribute and help those who seek protection abroad, and in this case in Germany,” Scholz said..

Despite the words of the German Chancellor about supporting Ukraine, earlier in the European press there was information that the FRG had minimized the supply of weapons for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Despite this, Scholz said that Germany is ready to send the necessary weapons for Ukraine directly to the war zone..

Recall that Olaf Scholz has repeatedly been criticized because of the indecisive policy regarding the war of Ukraine against Russia.. Despite the declared support and promises to send Ukraine the necessary weapons, Germany is still trying to maintain ties with the aggressor country due to its energy dependence on the Russian Federation and its own political interests..
