German Chancellor will travel to Russia and Ukraine to try to find diplomatic solutions

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz assured that Ukraine, Russia, France and Germany have a duty to find a way out of the crisis.

The German chancellor assured over the weekend that he would travel to Ukraine on Monday and to Russia on Tuesday to talk with the leaders. With these visits, he will try to achieve a de-escalation in Russia and guarantee peace in the region.

However, he assured that if Russia carries out an attack against Ukraine, Moscow would receive large international sanctions.

Prior to his tour, Olaf assured that there is a very serious threat to European peace. The German president has been criticized in recent days for maintaining a position considered permissive with respect to Russia.

To this, the chancellor assured that, as in the past, Germany maintains support and solidarity with Ukraine.

Scholz has compared the economic support Ukraine has received from other countries with that sent by Germany. Also assuring that it has been his country that has assumed most of the financial aid in the crisis.

Currently, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the allied countries have managed a double international strategy.

This consists of meetings and dialogue tables to build diplomatic channels to get out of the crisis and, on the other hand, they have maintained a joint sanctioning discourse of consummating the invasion of Ukraine.

In reference to the alliance's strategy, Olaf assured that the sanctioning plans are still in force, but they are currently exhausting all diplomatic channels to de-escalate the conflict and to preserve peace in Europe.

Currently, Russia has deployed more than 130,000 soldiers around the entire Ukrainian border and has carried out the largest military exercises in its history on Belarusian territory.
