Merkel also announced the threat of hybrid attacks from Russia.
“Russia is a big challenge for us, but also a large continental neighbor of the European Union. We have to admit that we are all vulnerable to hybrid attacks. At the same time, we are very interested in security and stability in the EU, and therefore in dialogue, no matter how difficult it may be, “said Merkel.
Commenting on Joe Biden’s meeting with Vladimir Putin, she said that through dialogue it is possible to find out the position of the other side.
“Taking into account the situation in Ukraine, we know that only negotiations, the Minsk format in general, give a chance to move further down the millimeter, although it may be very difficult,” Merkel added.
