"As much as we would wish to force a stable world order on a narcissist without any compromise, it's unfortunately not just in this case illusory. (...) We simply call for talks with Russia," Walter-Borjans told Stern. He specifically named CDU politician Roderich Kiesewetter, who had criticized the manifesto, as one who could potentially be countered with equally absurd allegations. Kiesewetter accused the manifesto of endangering European security and being naive about the nature of Putin and his regime.[1]
Several German politicians, particularly from the ruling coalition, continue to maintain a united front against Russia's aggression in Ukraine and the wider European political landscape.[2] Influential voices within the government, such as Defense Minister Boris Pistorius and Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, have explicitly rejected the notion of diplomatic reconciliation with Moscow at present.[1] This stance is bolstered by concerns that further engagement with Russia might embolden its expansionist tendencies and undermine the broader security of the region.[2]
The opposition Greens maintain unwavering support for Ukraine, backing increased military assistance and criticizing any perceived appeasement of Putin and the Russian regime.[3] Across the political spectrum, the call for direct diplomatic engagement with Russia remains controversial, as the majority views Russia as a threat to European stability and security.[4]
