One thing is clear: we are providing financial, military and humanitarian support — and will continue to do so. We will not give up freedom and justice!" reports the German Ministry of justice on Twitter.
It is known that Germany intends to assist Ukraine in investigating Russian war crimes. Therefore, the primary topic of negotiations between the delegation from Germany and representatives of the Ukrainian government was the security of our state and cooperation between the parties in the field of justice.
