Germany's Scholz Opposes Imposed Peace in Ukraine Conflict
BERLIN (Reuters) - There must be no imposed peace in Ukraine and any solution to the conflict must involve the United States, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said in an interview with Politico released on Thursday.
"It is very clear to me that there must be no solution that does not also involve the U.S.," Scholz said.
"The next task is to ensure that there is no imposed peace," he added.
U.S. President Donald Trump discussed the war in Ukraine on Wednesday in phone calls with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
It was not immediately clear whether the interview with Scholz was conducted before or after the calls.
