Ukraine will never be able to defeat Russia, and this was never the goal.

This statement was made by Friedrich Merz, the leader of Germany’s main opposition party, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), in an interview with “Bild.”

He said that the allies are supposedly helping Ukraine “not to lose the war.”

When asked, “Should Ukraine win the war?” he replied:

“Ukraine will never be able to defeat Russia; that was never the goal. But for me, victory means that Ukraine should restore its sovereignty over its territory, and Russia must stop attacking this country. We must do everything to make Russia consider continuing the war to be hopeless. But we are still quite far from that.”

The CDU is currently leading the polls in Germany, and Friedrich Merz is considered one of the most likely candidates for the role of chancellor.
