“I would really like the chief German diplomat to find time for the Ukrainian ambassador. Nothing can replace a confidential conversation,” Melnyk said.
The Federal Foreign Office emphasizes that Burbock is in constant contact with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba. The other ministers, however, do not operate in a strict hierarchical manner. In particular, the ministers of economy, finance, defense, transport and education of Germany have already met with Melnik.
