Russia has launched a major attack on Ukraine. Markus Söder spoke of an oppressive feeling and has a clear demand.
Update from February 24, 8:27 a.m .: “A black day for peace in Europe,” wrote Markus Söder on Twitter in the morning. “War must never be a solution. We condemn the attack on Ukraine, it must be stopped immediately. We support the federal government in taking the necessary steps in close coordination with our western partners,” he added. The CSU boss is currently on the train to Vienna with Florian Herrmann. There is an appointment with the Austrian Chancellor Nehammer: “Actually a visit to the neighborhood – but we are all depressed about the situation in Ukraine. In the western community of states, we stand for the territorial independence of Ukraine.”
Party colleague Markus Blume was also shocked by Russia’s actions: “The attack on Ukraine is an attack on Europe. We must stand together now and show a common response. International law is non-negotiable,” he wrote on Twitter for the hashtag “WeStandWithUkraine”. Katharina Schulze, co-chair of the Bavarian Greens, is also appalled: “When I think of the people in Ukraine, I feel great pain. They want to live in peace in their country, but Putin won’t let them. He started a war. It’s so awful,” she wrote on Twitter.
