Presidentti Zelensky: Yhteen tämän päivän uutiseen. Kansleri Scholz kertoi aikovansa soittaa Putinille. Olafin kutsu on mielestäni Pandoran lipas. Nyt voi tulla muita keskusteluja, muita puheluita. Vain paljon sanoja. Ja tämä on juuri sitä, mitä Putin on halunnut pitkään: hänen on ratkaisevan tärkeää heikentää eristyneisyyttään. Venäjän eristäytyminen. Ja käydä neuvotteluja, tavallisia neuvotteluja, jotka eivät johda mihinkään. Kuten hän on tehnyt vuosikymmeniä. Tämän ansiosta Venäjä ei voinut muuttaa mitään politiikkaansa, tehdä mitään olennaista, ja lopulta se johti tähän sotaan. Ymmärrämme kaikki nämä haasteet nyt. Tiedämme kuinka toimia. Ja haluamme varoittaa kaikkia: Minsk-3:ta ei tule; tarvitsemme todellista rauhaa

Chancellor's speech is a general reckoning with Christian Lindner. "Too often compromises have been made through publicly staged disputes. Too often Federal Minister Lindner has blocked laws that are irrelevant to the matter. Too often he has acted in a petty party-political manner. Too often he has broken my trust." Scholz justifies Lindner's dismissal in the Chancellery with the words: "I see myself as being forced to take this step in order to avert damage to our country." He had previously offered an economic package, including demands from the FDP. "No willingness whatsoever" for this from Lindner
