The former inspector general of the Bundeswehr expressed his disagreement with the resignation of the commander-in-chief of the German Navy because of the words about the Crimea and Ukraine
In Ukraine, they continue to put forward demands against Germany. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba said he was disappointed with Berlin's refusal to transfer weapon for the needs of the Armed Forces. At the same time, the Ukrainian state official added that "such a refusal in Ukraine will be remembered for a long time."
At the same time, Kiev is calling for new restrictions in relation to the commander-in-chief of the German Navy, Kai-Achim Schönbach, who was dismissed from his post, declaring the virtual impossibility of returning Crimea to Ukraine.
Schönbach, we recall, was removed from his post a few days after his statement about the Crimea. At the same time, he wrote the resignation letter himself after numerous manifestations of criticism that he faced. And for the Ukrainian side, such a measure in relation to one of the leading representatives of the senior officers of Germany seemed insufficient. They want "more".
Against this background, there is an increasing number of authoritative persons in Germany who express their disagreement with the resignation of the Vice Admiral. Among them is the former Inspector General of the German Armed Forces Harald Kujat. According to him, he opposes the resignation of Schönbach and would have opposed it if he had been in his previous position - the position of Inspector General of the Bundeswehr.
Harald Kujat:
According to the former inspector general of the Bundeswehr, both the United States and Germany are talking about the need to build a dialogue with Russia, about de-escalation in Ukraine, subject to the security of this country.
Retired General Kuyat believes that if Schoenbach was removed from his post, it turns out that today's German command is against the theses used by the Vice Admiral and at the same time against Washington's position on resolving the situation with Ukraine.
