Germany’s Defense Minister Boris Pistorius has criticized the U.S. administration for making early concessions to Russian President Vladimir Putin ahead of potential Ukraine peace negotiations.
“It is regrettable, but the Trump administration has already made public concessions before talks have even begun,” Pistorius said Thursday, warning that issues like Ukraine’s NATO membership and territorial integrity should be decided at the negotiating table.
He stressed that Europe must be directly involved in talks, as the continent will bear the consequences of any peace deal. “If we are to play a central role in maintaining peace, we must also help shape the agreement,” he said.
Pistorius also highlighted the need for continued U.S. military presence in Europe to deter Russia, warning that an abrupt withdrawal would destabilize the region. When asked if President Trump had reached out to German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, he said he was unaware of any such communication.
