MOSCOW, October 4. /TASS/. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz apparently wants the Germans to work more to continue supporting Ukraine, Russian president’s special envoy for investment and economic cooperation with foreign countries and CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) Kirill Dmitriev said.
"Warmonger Merz just wants the German people to stop being lazy, work more for Ukraine, and share their social benefits with Ukraine--all to extend the war, not to strive for peace," he wrote on X, commenting on co-chair of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party Alice Weidel’s criticism of Merz’s policies.
She slammed the chancellor for his plans to continue assistance to Kiev, saying that Germany needs this money itself. According to her, the number of Germans refusing to support Kiev continues to rise.
"Somehow only 10% of Germans like Merz," Dmitriev added.
