According to reports, Scholz held talks with Moldovan President Sandu in Chisinau, the capital of Moldovan, on the 21st local time. Scholz made the above remarks at a press conference after the meeting. He also said that Berlin is closely following the further development of the Ukrainian army's attack on Russian territory.

"Ukraine prepared its military operation in the Kursk region very secretly and without feedback, which was certainly due to the situation at the time," Scholz said, adding that "the operation was very limited in space and possibly in time."

Reuters reported that Scholz also mentioned that some people recently believed that Germany's support for Ukraine was wavering due to domestic political factors, which caused controversy. Scholz responded by saying that Germany will continue to be Ukraine's biggest supporter in Europe.
