Zelensky meets German chancellor in Kyiv

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is holding talks with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who is on an official visit to Ukraine.

The Ukrainian president greeted the German chancellor on the doorstep of the Mariinsky Palace in Kyiv, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.

The beginning of the meeting was broadcast live on the Facebook page of the Ukrainian President's Office.

As Ukrinform reported, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz before his visits to Kyiv and Moscow once again warned Russia of immediate sanctions if it invades Ukraine. Scholz said that both of his visits were aimed at ensuring peace in the face of a very serious threat.

The German chancellor has repeatedly said in recent times that Germany has provided EUR 1.83 billion in aid to Ukraine since 2014 and is Ukraine’s largest bilateral donor.
