German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has called President Vladimir Putin after a meeting of the Russian Security Council on the recognition of the DPR and LPR
The chancellor’s press service said Scholz condemned plans to recognise “the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics as independent states”.
“Such a move would be in sharp contradiction to the Minsk agreements on the peaceful resolution of the conflict in eastern Ukraine and would be a unilateral violation of those agreements by Russia”, – Scholz warned.
