I held a meeting with the German Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Ms @GermanAmbUK.
Germany is a strategic partner of Ukraine in countering Russian aggression and one of our major allies in Europe. Berlin continues to provide critically important military assistance, particularly for Ukraine’s air defence and the production of interceptors to counter jet-powered Shahed drones. Cooperation in the joint production of drones and unmanned ground vehicles is also developing.
The German government recently allocated an additional funding package for Ukraine’s energy sector. All these are extremely important steps in providing support against the backdrop of Russia intensifying its strikes on Ukraine ahead of winter.
The Ambassador reaffirmed the German government’s unwavering position on the need to continue putting pressure on Russia, which must be intensified in order to achieve peace – for Ukraine and all of Europe.
100 years ago, the beloved children's book Winnie-the-Pooh created by English author A A Milne was published.
It was not until 1987 that a German translation appeared which truly did justice to Milne’s work: the version translated by Harry Rowohlt.
Happy birthday, Pu der Bär!

Recent events & attacks have only increased our 🇪🇺 resolve to support #Ukraine in its defence! At #WSF2026 in #Warsaw, my friend @andrii_sybiha & I discussed ways forward. It’s time to increase pressure on Russia & the #EU has delivered with sweeping sanctions on #Russia. 🇩🇪🤝🇺🇦

"Europe is hitting Putin's war economy with unprecedented sanctions".
Russia cannot and will not win this war.
Statement by German Foreign Minister Wadephul on the adoption of new EU sanctions against Russia 👇
ALT Europe is hitting Putin’s war economy with unprecedented sanctions. The EU sanctions list today comprises more individuals and companies than ever before – a total of more than 1600. Almost all of these are directly or indirectly significant in helping Russia wage its war. We are thereby making it difficult for Putin to continue his illegal invasion and war – including his cynical attempts to wear down and sow terror among the Ukrainian civilian population with a deadly bombing campaign. Because Putin is placing all of his bets on escalation: Ukraine’s civilian population, including a significant number of children, has just suffered through one of the deadliest weeks of the year.
