German Chancellor Merz visits Kyiv as Russia strikes city bridge
Original: Germany's Merz arrives in Kiev for talks as Russia strikes city bridge
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has arrived in Kyiv for talks with Ukrainian officials, arriving as Russian forces struck a bridge in the Ukrainian capital. The visit underlines Germany's continued support for Ukraine, and the timing of the strike during his arrival drew attention to the ongoing intensity of Russian attacks on the city.
Why now: The overlap of a major European leader's visit with a Russian strike on Kyiv highlights the war's ongoing intensity and Germany's role in supporting Ukraine.
