Russian President Vladimir Putin and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz held a phone call Friday to discuss ways to end the war in Ukraine, according a person familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Uncertainty over support from Western allies has also been growing ahead of Donald Trump’s return to the White House next year. Germany is Ukraine’s second-biggest supporter after the US and has pledged billions of euros in additional aid.

Both, once NATO leaves, Russia shouldn't have much reason to stay

Didn't Ukraine refuse a deal of Russia getting out in exchange for them not joining NATO?

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 day ago

That would be perfect

Scholz is on his way out though.
