Kiesewetter wrote about this on X.

“We must be prepared for surprises in the election campaign. There are more and more signs that Chancellor Scholz will travel to Moscow or meet with Putin before February 23. For Ukraine, the implementation of these plans means, among other things, the suspension of the Paris Agreement for 10-20 years,” the post says.

In addition, the politician noted that “currently, a meeting between Trump and Putin is scheduled for March” and added “let everyone draw their own conclusion about this.” 

Kiesewetter emphasized that Ukraine “should not be an object and a victim” and that “we need to adapt to Ukraine, not to Russia.”

  • Early elections to the Bundestag are scheduled for February 23, 2025, in Germany.
