German Chancellor Mertz said that the talks between German and Russian foreign ministers showed that the Kremlin had no intention of ending the war in Ukraine. German Foreign Minister Waldfuhr met with Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov during the UN General Assembly last Saturday. Lavrov then downplayed this temporary arrangement, which lasted 20 minutes. Mertz told reporters after meeting with Kazakh President Tokayev in Berlin on Tuesday that Russia's response to this meeting showed that Moscow clearly had no intention of engaging in serious negotiations, and Germany would shift its focus to supporting Ukraine to resist Russia.
