FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Sunday he and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy agree that Russia should be included in a future peace conference aimed at ending Russia's war against Ukraine. He called for stepped up efforts to solve the conflict.
A previous peace conference June 15-16 in Switzerland ended with 78 countries expressing support for Ukraine’s “territorial integrity” but otherwise left the path forward unclear. Russia did not participate.
“I believe that now is the moment when we must discuss how we get out of this war situation faster than the current impression is,” Scholz said in an interview with Germany's ZDF public television aired Sunday.
“There will certainly be a further peace conference, and the president and I agree that it must be one with Russia present,” Scholz said.
Scholz is facing more political discontent at home over his government's support including money and weapons for Ukraine after populist parties that oppose arming Ukraine did well in state elections Sept. 1 at the expense of parties in his three-party governing coalition. Some members of his Social Democratic Party have also called for more emphasis on diplomacy toward Russia.

But I don't think Russia will participate anytime soon. They'd prefer generals in a tent determining the terms.
They giving Kamala ammo for the debate about how she’s going to work with our international partners blah blah.
All to deny Trump the credit?
Ye. These EU Monkeys know Trump will end this war.
Thus, like u said they are getting out in front.
DC and London want the war to stop with a DMZ Korea style border, then they can flood Ukraine with weapons, money, NATO or “NATO Light” membership with a view to continuing the war someday.
And of course, the DC/London axis has zero intent of returning the stolen gold and currency, stopping sanctions, etc. And no intent to end the Uke neo-nazi movement. And guaranteed DC will not repair the nordstream line.
So I doubt Russia will agree to the German/DC/London plans no matter who is in charge. Just not much in it for them to do so.
MORE Machiavellian obfuscation from the Globalists.
Winners don’t talk about how to negotiate an end to a War, they destroy the other side. 🤔 So I guess we’re not winning,
Remember after the NATO summit Biden held in DC , Germany pledged to raise their military budget to a 3 handle. When their budget was released it listed as about half of the promise. Then we got faux outrage over Ukraine s involvement in the Nord stream pipeline sabotage for their reason to cut funding.
Germany shouldn’t be lecturing anyone on war, or how to conduct it.
I think Germany has already said they are done/unable to continue providing aid of any kind to Ukraine and would like to end that visual of non-aid by hastening the end of Ukraine. Thoughts?
