Withdrawal of Russian troops is condition for negotiations with Russia – Scholz

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has said that any peace negotiations must be conditioned on Russia's withdrawal of its troops from the territory of Ukraine.

The German chancellor added that he and the Brazilian president have a clear common position: "We both condemn the Russian invasion".

On the other hand, Lula clearly rejected hopes that Ukraine would be supplied with ammunition for Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns or for Leopard tanks.

Quote: "Brazil is not interested in transferring ammunition for the Ukrainian-Russian war. Brazil is a country of peace. And that is why Brazil does not want to participate in this war, even indirectly," he said at a joint press conference.

Background: German Chancellor Olaf Scholz claimed that the question of a possible provision of fighter jets to Ukraine does not even arise at the moment.
