Germany believes reforms in Ukraine not fast, deep enough - head of German-Ukrainian Parliamentary Group
Reforms in Ukraine are not fast enough, Member of German Bundestag of the Christian Democratic Unity (CDU) and head of the German-Ukrainian Parliamentary Group Karl-Georg Wellmann has said.
"Both in your parliament, and in our German Bundestag, and among the German public, there are concerns that the reforms here are not fast enough and not deep enough," he said during a meeting of the German-Ukrainian Parliamentary Group and the parliamentary group of the Verkhovna Rada on inter-parliamentary relations with Germany in Kyiv on Tuesday.
Wellmann stressed the need to resolve the conflict in the east of Ukraine, noting that the hostilities had already claimed the lives of a large number of Ukrainian soldiers, of more than 6,000 civilians, while a lot of Ukrainians were forced to leave their homes.
"No matter how important this topic [the resolution of the conflict in Donbas], it seems to me that Ukraine's future is still decided in Kyiv," the MP said.
