A plastic bag may be used for minutes, but its impact can last for decades—polluting our oceans, harming wildlife, and damaging ecosystems.

While Ukraine is and has always been ready for a just peace, Putin still refuses to negotiate. That is the only reason why the war drags on. And that is why Germany continues to support Ukraine’s resistance. Until just and lasting peace becomes possible. 🇩🇪🇺🇦 #StandWithUkraine
