Chancellor Olaf Scholz has pledged to maintain Germany’s aid to Ukraine in the face of the Russian invasion even as Berlin supports Israel in its conflict with Hamas.
“We are backing Ukraine economically, financially, with humanitarian aid and also with weapons,” AFP quotes Scholz as saying.
“This support will in no way be impacted by the fact that we of course since the horrible morning hours of October 7 have focused on Israel and the Middle East with the greatest sympathy and concern,” he said.
