Reuters reported the information.
“The condemnation of the G7 of Russia’s war of aggression is very clear, especially on the third anniversary of Russia’s brutal attack,” Kukies said, adding that Trump’s proposal would not receive the unanimity required.
According to him, a trade war between the U.S. and the EU can be avoided since both sides are willing to negotiate: “No one has an interest in starting a trade war.”
Background. Kukies was appointed Finance Minister in Olaf Scholz’s government in November after the ruling coalition collapsed. He is expected to serve until a new government is formed following Sunday’s elections, in which Friedrich Merz’s conservatives won.
- Earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump stated that excluding Russia from the organization was “a mistake.”
