Leaders of Germany, the United States, France, Italy, and the UK spoke out in support of Ukraine
The heads of state of the Quint format, which includes Germany, the United States, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom, have expressed strong support for Ukraine's sovereignty.
This is stated in the message of the Elysee Palace following the talks on December 6.
"The five heads of state and government shared their analysis of tensions between Russia and Ukraine, expressed their determination to respect the latter's sovereignty, and expressed their commitment to work to maintain peace and security in Europe. All of them reminded everyone of the need to resume talks between Russia and Ukraine within the so-called Normandy group under the auspices of France and Germany," the statement said.
Last Friday, US President Joe Biden reportedly said his administration was preparing a series of initiatives aimed at deterring Russian aggression.
