The German leader also announced Putin’s “unwanted position” after his failure to emerge for negotiations, which he suggested himself.
A new package of penalties in the European Union against Russia will be accepted at an EU council meeting in Brussels on May 20. This was announced by German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz on the social network KH.
“The new package of penalties is ready. We will accept it in Brussels on Tuesday,” he wrote.
At the same time, Mertz called the “great concession” that Ukraine president Vladimir Zelensky went to Istanbul negotiations.
Meanwhile, Russian leader Vladimir Putin, according to Mernets, did not go to Turkey, “put himself in an uncomfortable position.”
The German Chancellor also confirmed that the new package of sanctions against Russia is ready to accept.
Remember, on May 14, the ambassadors of EU member countries joined the 17 packs of sanctions against Russia. In addition to restrictions for “shadow fleet”, there are additional penalties for human rights violations, hybrid interventions worldwide and the spread of chemical weapons.
Earlier, Mertz confirmed that the European Union was willing to impose a stronger penalty against Russia if the development of the end of the war in Ukraine was not achieved.
